Our Stories Need You
Virtual Tenement Tours
You can now visit the Tenement Museum from anywhere in the world. During a live, online tour, our Tenement Museum Educators will take you into the historically restored apartments using pre-recorded video, audio and images, and share stories of a family who lived in our historic buildings in the 19th and 20th centuries. Along with a glimpse of the past, visitors glean insights from educators who offer historical perspectives that relate to current conversations about immigration.
Our virtual tours are currently offered select days throughout the week. Select a family tour to learn our upcoming schedule.
Virtual building tours are $10/device, Costumed Interpreter/Meet the Residents tours are $15/device. All virtual tours are free for Museum members.
