Presented in association with the Tenement Museum. Founded in 1988, The Tenement Museum welcomes visitors into the homes of immigrant, migrant, and refugee families, sharing their stories in order to inspire connection between past and present and to build a more inclusive and expansive American society. The Museum is experienced through educator-led tours of recreate family apartments of German, Irish, Black, Jewish, Italian, Puerto Rican, and Chinese families who lived in New York's tenements from the 1860s through the 1980s.
