This Sat, May 4, 12–5pm, the Museum is joining the @GothamParkNYC semi-annual Community Block Party. Come enjoy music, entertainment, and activities like learning how sailors communicate with signal flags and creating your own message. bit.ly/3UiPd5f
It’s International Dance Day––the perfect day to book free tickets for the immersive, site-responsive performances, “Convergent Waves: NYC,” which is choreographed by award-winning dancer-artistic director Lenora Lee and the talented performers. seaportmuseum.org/convergent-wav…
Happy Birthday to all of us! 🎂 Today the Museum turns 57! On April 28, 1967, the charter was signed. On this special day, we are especially grateful for the work of the forward-looking individuals who made the Museum a reality.
This past week, Seaport Museum staff joined colleagues at the Council of #AmericanMaritimeMuseums (CAMM) to gain new perspectives from maritime museums and institutions across North America. The 2024 conference was hosted by the @USSConstMuseum in Boston. #MaritimeHeritage
If you listen to the radio, today is the perfect day to thank Guglielmo Marconi (1874–1937), inventor of radio wave-based communication. This Cunard Daily Bulletin features "Marconigrams" which kept passengers up-to-date on the news while at sea. #InternationalMarconiDay
The Museum’s long-standing musical tradition, the #SeaChanteys and #MaritimeMusic program, returns to the deck of the 1885 tall ship Wavertree the first Sunday of each month May–October! Registration is open for all 2024 in-person sessions. seaportmuseum.org/chanteysing
Would you spend $880.13 on a phone call? Adjusted for inflation, this was the price in 1929 for ocean liner passengers to make a call between NY and Amsterdam. Thankfully, modern phones make long distance calls more accessible! #TelephoneDay #FromTheArchives ☎️: 2006.29.504
Looking for a special Mother’s Day card? Want to spend quality time with the mother figure in your life? Stop by Bowne & Co. Sat, May 4, 12–2pm, to create a festive Mother’s Day card using the Museum’s historical printing equipment! seaportmuseum.org/bowne-mothers-…
#EarthDay is a reminder of the importance of environmental conservation and sustainability, encouraging us to come together and take action for a healthier planet and brighter future. Join the Museum this weekend for an all-ages family activity Ecological Explorations.
Special Spring and Summer Sundays are now available for the popular Print Your Own Stationary workshop at the Museum! Newly added Sunday sessions are available from 12–3pm, on April 28, May 26, June 30, and July 28. Get your tickets today at seaportmuseum.org/stationery-wor…
Happy #VolunteerRecognitionDay! The Seaport Museum wouldn’t be the same without the incredible work done by dedicated volunteers. A few days ago we held the first Volunteer Appreciation Awards Party since 2019 and feel deeply energized and inspired by so many of you.
The Seaport Museum has collected hundreds of menus that span a century of ocean crossings. Each one saved for a reason—picked up from the table by a passenger and kept long after their voyage. This menu was circulated to the passengers on board SS La Bretagne #OTD in 1911.
#OnThisDay in 1907 #EllisIsland processed 11,747 individuals making this the busiest day in Ellis Island’s history. The linguistic and cultural diversity of the processing station helped ease new arrivals on their first day in America. 📸: William Asadorian Collection. H67-0017
Spring has finally sprung and, after spending most of the Winter indoors, it’s time to get outside and explore #NYC! Get your tickets today to enjoy a #WalkingTour through #LowerManhattan and the South Street Seaport Historic District with us. seaportmuseum.org/sinister-secre…
Today we remember all who died #OTD in 1912 when RMS #Titanic sank into the Atlantic Ocean. One year later, the Titanic Memorial Lighthouse was erected by public subscription 240 ft above sea level on the @seamenschurch roof. #TitanicRemembranceDay #FromTheArchives
It’s #NationalSubmarineDay! Although the US Government didn't purchase its first modern submarine until 1900, engineer and inventor Robert Fulton (1765–1815) published his submarine designs and experiments nearly a century earlier in this #RareBook in our collection. 📖: 2003.14
You can now enhance your visit to the Seaport Museum with the @bbgconnects digital guide! Download the app on your smartphone and learn about the Museum's ships, buildings, Pier 16, galleries and more. Don’t forget to bring your headphones! seaportmuseum.org/bloomberg-conn…
On Wednesday, April 10, at 6:30pm, join the Seaport Museum and Ross Perlin, for a unique look at the linguistic diversity of New York City as explored in his new book, “Language City: The Fight to Preserve Endangered Mother Tongues in New York.” seaportmuseum.org/language-city
Today kicks off #WaterWeek, which runs April 7–13! This week, and on weekends throughout April, visit the Museum to immerse yourself in a variety of hands-on activities designed for people of all ages to learn about physical #ecology of the New York City waterfront! #WaterMonth

It’s #LeapDay!💋 Ever since an extra day every four years was added as a corrective measure, the day has been filled with traditions and superstitions. For some, the day is connected with the Irish tradition that a woman may propose to a man on February 29.
The Lunar New Year Celebration at #TheSeaport was filled with so much joy 🐉 Thank you to everyone who welcomed in the Year of the Wood Dragon with us!
One of the revelations to me in my research for The Slip. The artists who briefly lived on Coenties Slip joined a history of transient labor communities who were a part of and apart from the city.
Did you know that Coenties Slip, in Lower Manhattan, was once the Winter home for many canal boat families? This #ArchivesFamilyPhotos shows a group of children on one of these barges, with the buildings of South Street in the background. #ArchivesHashtagParty 📷: 2016.3.37
A reminder for our #ArchivesHashtagParty friends--as always, we are skipping the month of January! We'll be back on February 2 with the soothing sounds of #ArchivesASMR, from the rattle of carts to the rustle of onion skin to the thunk of reshelving archival boxes.
