Breathing Water Family Event

Breathing Water Family Event. Start off the series of free family art workshops every Saturday this October. This event series is inspired by water and appropriately located at the Seaport.

This Saturday you are invited to make a bio-sand filter in a bottle. Experimental learning will allow children to learn through the use of sand and water to explain how water is filtered in the wild. You and your children will have time to test and play around with your very own mini-model. This workshop will help teach your kids a complex concept in a simple and enjoyable way. 

OHorizons will be at this Saturday’s workshop. OHorizons is a non-profit organization that provides water filters around the world for clean drinking water for the developing world. Come enjoy their demonstration on water filters and listen to their stories about water issues everywhere.

Families are also invited to bring their children to enjoy touchable-art. This week Teresa Diehl’s Breathing Waters will be featured. Stop by every Saturday for the rest of the month to learn more about the relationship that Lower Manhattan has with water through crafts and educational workshops. 

Date: Saturday, October 10th [Read more…] about Breathing Water Family Event

Art Start Family Workshop

Art Start Family Workshop. Make your way to the Seaport this Saturday for a morning of making a homemade checkerboard! Add to your family game nights with your very own masterpiece, this may even spark an interest and motivate your children to learn the game or for you to refresh your memory.

You’ll be able to choose your own colors as you design your custom made checkerboard. Your children will be happy adding to their collection of games and toys, and being able to say they made it all by themselves or with the help of their family. 

Art Start focuses on the youth of NYC through free creative workshops open to the public in different venues, inside homeless shelters, programs, and other youth agencies. Art Start is a member of the Seaport Culture District. An outdoor light-and-sound installation in Cannon’s Walk is currently featured at the South Street Seaport.

One of our favorite traditions is displaying our h One of our favorite traditions is displaying our holiday cards on our wall. It’s been so fun to see pictures of our friends with their kids, their 4-legged pets or a beautiful card with no pictures and a note. The hard part is deciding when to take them down. In an effort to stay connected and to keep the conversation going with the kids, I think this year we will keep them up for a while longer. Connectivity is our theme for 2021 and grateful to see friends and family on our holiday wall this year. Any traditions we should know about for the new year? Please share!
