Content provider's logo

Tenement Museum virtual field trips immerse students in the past through 360° images, video, and primary sources. Students explore history through the stories of real people and see how their own stories are part of history. Immigration and migration are the foundation for all programs, and museum educators connect the themes of belonging, community building, and cultural adaptation in programming to create entry points for students of all identities and experiences.

Programs are adapted for students k-12, collegiate, and adult learners and led by a museum educator for a flexible, interactive, and inquiry-based experience that makes history relevant. All programs are aligned with the National Education Standards, the C3 framework, and multi-state Social Studies Scope and Sequence.

Awards, Quotes, Testimonials

"[My students] loved getting to see the inside of the apartment and inquire into why the Epstein Family moved to NYC. ... My class had an infinite number of questions as we moved through the apartment and learned about their journey and life.  After the program the students continued talking about how life was different in the 1950's compared to now."



"Our guide/leader was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and did a great job at answering questions as they came up, while still maintaining the flow of the field trip"


"The virtual trip was exceedingly well managed and presented to students.  Victoria speaking in character was a wonderful experience for our students....brought much of what we have been learning about to life."
