Skyscraper Museum Family Program – Time Machine in BPC: From Landfill to Waterfront Community
July 10, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
OUTDOORS: STARTS AT SKYSCRAPER MUSEUM, 39 BATTERY PLACE
If the Skyscraper Museum gallery was a time machine and we traveled back 50 years, we’d be standing on sand! The neighborhood that is now Battery Park City was created as new land in the Hudson River, beginning with some excavations from the foundations for the original World Trade Center. In this program, we’ll time travel back forty years to see how artists turned landfill in Battery Park City into art projects, then imagine and draw our own projects for outdoor land art or public sculptures using photography. Recommended for 2nd-6th grade.
This event is free to the public. Every child should be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Pre-registration required at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/take-a-time-machine-in-bpc-from-landfill-to-waterfront-community-tickets-154762644235
Presented by The Skyscraper Museum in partnership with Battery Park City Authority
