Please Note

The south wing of The Bronx Museum is currently undergoing a transformative $33 million renovation, with construction slated for completion in 2026! Our north galleries and event spaces remain open, but capacity is limited.

We will do our best to accommodate everyone who attends the FUTURA 2000 exhibition opening in our north building. But to ensure the well-being and safety of our staff and visitors, we may need to ask your party to wait outside the Museum momentarily until some people exit the event.

You can help out by letting us know if you plan on attending with a free RSVP! If you do so, we will also be able to inform you via email if there are any important updates you need to know before the event.

Thank you for your kind understanding, we look forward to hosting you on September 8th!
