Winter Events

Marvel at model trains zipping through an enchanting display of more than 175 famous New York landmarks (the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, Rockefeller Center, and other favorites) each re-created from natural materials such as birch bark, acorns, and cinnamon sticks.

Join us for one of New York’s most beloved displays, the Museum Origami Holiday Tree. This year’s these is T. rex and Friends: History in the Making.

Marvel at homemade gingerbread houses made entirely of edible gingerbread, royal icing and candy. The houses are drafted, designed, baked, planned, built and decorated by chef Jon Lovitch
