Tenement Museum Opens New Exhibit

With immigration dominating the national conversation, a major new permanent exhibit opening at The Tenement Museum this month is immersing visitors in the lives of three immigrant and migrant families from different corners of the world—China, Puerto Rico, and Poland—who all lived in the same New York City apartment building during the 1950s to 2014.

PKPR organized a press preview tour of the exhibit attended by 20 journalists. Coverage highlights include: NBC NewsCityLabTablet, Untapped Cities, The New York TimesThe ForwardSinovisionSplinteram New York, Bowery Boogie, and Viewing NYC.

The Tenement Museum tells the story of American immigration. It has become one of New York City’s preeminent cultural and educational institutions, welcoming more than 238,000 visitors in 2016. Its two historic tenements on Orchard Street were home to an estimated 15,000 people from more than 20 nations between 1863 and 2000. Educators guide visitors and help them understand how immigrants weathered hard times and built new lives.
