More About Camp
Travel back in time and experience life in 19th-century New York City, using the museum's landmark building as a focal point. Campers will enjoy an array of hands-on activities, including historic crafts, games, behind-the-scenes tours, and scavenger hunts. Past projects have included churning old-fashioned ice cream, gardening, and journaling with quills and ink. Session One, for ages 9-12, will also include a trip to a local historic site. Session Two, for ages 6-8, will give our youngest campers the opportunity to become history detectives with our new half-day program. Register before April 1st for your Early Bird Discount.
