In late July, we welcomed two sessions of students from the Langston Hughes Library Summer Program and the East Elmhurst Library Summer Program for a City Innovators workshop, made possible through the support of Port Authority and CLEAR.
On July 8th, we were thrilled to attend the NYC Culture and Arts Summer Celebration at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (@metmuseum).
It was a wonderful evening spent celebrating the close of the fiscal year alongside our incredible peers in the arts and culture community.
In May, we celebrated the culmination of our afterschool program, the Science Innovators Club.
Made possible through support from the Simons Foundation, the program engages students in hands-on scientific exploration through design challenges and collaborative problem-solving.
In June, we partnered with The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) to host a design convening that brought together students, educators, and engineering professionals for an afternoon working session of discovery, learning, and mentorship.

3…2…1… KA-BOOM! The New York Hall of Science was such a fun family day!
Our highlights:
🧪 The live chemistry show with a giant explosion.
🫧 The bubble exhibit where you can make giant bubbles and even step inside one.
🚌 Mika loved driving the bus, building towers with magnets, creating her own city, arts & crafts, and all the hands-on exhibits.
We spent 4 hours here and still didn’t see everything. The biggest sign it was a hit? Mika didn’t want to leave! ❤️
💡 Tip: Weekdays were great! When camp groups arrived, we simply explored another section, so it never felt crowded.
