Wave Hill Events April 20-April 27

 

Time to escape the everyday and immerse yourself in the beauty of nature. Join a Public Garden Highlights Walk, soak up some sun and take in the spring blooms as they bring fresh color to every corner of the garden. At the Family Art Project, learn how to make your own sailboat or raft using a mixture of upcycled materials—perfect for a day of family bonding and creativity.


Family Art Project: Set Sail! 

Sat, April 22, 2023, 10AM–1PM 

Sun, April 23, 2023, 10AM–1PM 

Free with admission to the grounds 

Meet at Wave Hill House 

With an eye towards Wave Hill’s view of the Hudson River and the boats that navigate it, learn how to make your own handmade sailboat or raft using a mixture of upcycled materials. Keep it as a small sculpture—or see if it floats!   

Registration not required. 


The program takes place indoors in the Kerlin Learning Center located on the lower level of Wave Hill House. Please note the following important COVID-related information to ensure everyone’s safety: 

  • Approximately nine families will be able to participate at a time, based on the time each family arrives. 

  • If capacity is full when you arrive, we will provide a “come back” card so you will have first entry for the next session. 

  • Each family will receive its own set of materials and cleaning will happen in between seating participants. 

  • Unvaccinated visitors are encouraged to wear a mask inside. 


Wave Hill House is located along a paved route with moderate changes in grade. The building is wheelchair-accessible. There is an accessible, ground-level entrance at the front of the building with a power-assist door. The restroom on the ground level is all-gender and ADA-compliant. Additional ADA-compliant restrooms are available on the lower level, which can be accessed by elevator.
