Wednesday, February 2 at 6:30pm.

The Tenement Museum’s newest virtual tour, Reclaiming Black Spaces, highlights stories of how Black and African Americans shaped Lower Manhattan as they made homes, businesses and communities over centuries. Explore what drew Black New Yorkers to Lower Manhattan and how their experiences were shaped by migration. We’ll look through windows into the past that expand the history of today’s Lower East Side. 

Registration is limited and is required to receive zoom login information.
