Family Day Rescheduled to Saturday, October 24
Due to the nor’easter forecast on September 26, Family Day was rescheduled to October 24.
Book your tickets today for the October date. We look forward to sharing a full day of fun all-ages activities with you!
Explore, play, make, and discover at the Seaport Museum! Family Day is the perfect opportunity to bring the whole family to the Museum for a full lineup of hands-on activities, games, and adventures throughout the historic Seaport—all with free General Admission.
Pick up your Family Day bingo card and set off to explore the Museum’s historic ships and exhibitions, stopping at activity stations along the way to collect your stamps. Try your hand at creating cyanotypes, test your senses with a food-themed activity inspired by Taste of the Seaport, solve rebuses aboard the 1885 tall ship Wavertree, play Lenape games, and follow a scavenger hunt through the Maritime City exhibition. Complete your bingo card to earn a special prize!
With something to discover around every corner, Family Day is a chance to experience the Seaport’s history through play, creativity, and a little friendly competition, if you’d like. Come explore the waterfront, get curious, and make a day of it!
Want to keep the fun going? Get your separate tickets to the KidZone at Taste of the Seaport, where the Museum will have even more activities for young explorers.
