Night at the Museums

Museums and historic landmarks located in Lower Manhattan and within walking distance of each other will again be open to the public free of charge one night this year on June 25, 2019. Details and a guide are available to help you plan your evening. Free special events are also offered at many of the venues.  I visited the China Institute, the Skyscraper Museum, and the 9/11 Tribute Museum last year.

Night at the Museums is produced by the Downtown Cultural Association and is part of the River to River Festival, which features free arts events from June 18 to 29 throughout Lower Manhattan.  I registered for one of the events, a walking tour offered by Black Gotham Experience, and will start my evening on June 25 with the tour near the South Street Seaport before taking in a couple of museums.

If you don’t want to walk between museums, the Downtown Connection, a free Downtown Alliance shuttle bus, is available.
