Our City, Our Seaport
The South Street Seaport Museum, now at risk of permanent closure, has been a cultural anchor of the seaport district for decades, telling the story of New York’s history and of its people.

So many of you have deep, personal memories and associations with the Seaport Museum. Maybe your parents took you onboard our ships or through our galleries. Maybe you came for a seaport district walking tour, a book reading, or a hands-on printing workshop at Bowne & Co. Maybe your children or grandchildren came home excited after taking an educational sail learning about the harbor life in the estuary or after seeing history come to life at Schermerhorn Row. Maybe you rolled up your sleeves and busted rust or got dressed up and celebrated with us at one of our annual events. Maybe you have not visited the Museum but as a New Yorker, you understand how it ties this magnificent city to its roots.

Share with us your favorite memory, moment, photo, or feeling to capture what you love best about the Seaport Museum and the Seaport District. We’re collecting these moments for use in our campaign, in the words of our community of friends, visitors, members, volunteers and supporters who have been the lifeblood of our institution and this district. Your input is invaluable as we kick off the Our City, Our Seaport: Campaign to Save the Seaport Museum.
