Family Program | Design Around Town

In celebration of NYCxDesign, join us to play some rounds of Cooper Hewitt’s _Design Around Town_, an exclusive-to-Cooper Hewitt board game! Invite your family members to come up with creative solutions to design challenges at an ice cream shop, a school, a stadium, and more. Family drop-in activities are designed for youth ages 5–12 and their adult guardian/caregivers. Family programs are included in the price of museum admission, and youth 18 and under are always free.
