Event Description

About the Event

Find NMWA educators at the National Building Museum for an activity inspired by the exhibition Building Stories.

Building Stories brings kids and adults on an immersive exploration of the worlds of architecture, engineering, construction, and design found in the pages of children’s books. The exhibition is geared toward an intergenerational audience, with special attention paid to children in grades K–3 and their parents and caregivers.

About the Program Partner

This program is presented in partnership with the National Building Museum. The National Building Museum educates, entertains, and engages people about the built environment and challenges them to advocate for a sustainable and equitable future.
