Strong Structures: How Do Buildings Get So Tall?

November 12, 2022 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am EST

Free

How do supertall structures stand up to wind, rain, and even earthquakes? They’re also super strong! Architects spend years designing buildings that look beautiful and stand up to the elements. Together, we’ll learn about how skyscrapers are built to be stronger than the weather, then students will take on the role of an architect and construct their own windproof towers! Recommended for ages 6-12. RSVP Required.

This is an in-person program that meets at the Skyscraper Museum, 39 Battery Pl. Masks are required for indoor programs.

You must reserve a place for your child/family by clicking the RSVP button above. This will forward you to Eventbrite for sign-up. After registering, you will receive emails to confirm your attendance through a Google Form. If you do not confirm attendance by the Friday morning before the program, your places will be canceled. Every child should be accompanied by a parent/guardian.

Family programs are free! Reservation priority is given to The Skyscraper Museum members. Want to become a member? Fall programs are supported by a Community Partnership with the Battery Park City Authority.
