For the South Street Seaport community, the Print Shop Open House at Bowne & Co. isn’t just an event—it’s a living celebration of our shared heritage. The South Street Seaport Museum has long anchored the neighborhood as a place where the city’s maritime and mercantile roots are cherished and kept alive. At the Open House, neighbors young and old come together to experience a hands-on piece of local history—reconnecting with the art of letterpress that once fueled commerce and creativity right here on the waterfront. It’s a chance for families, friends, and fellow New Yorkers to learn, create, and connect in a space that exudes old-world charm and community spirit. Supporting events like this ensures our unique legacy thrives for future generations. Whether you’re new to the neighborhood or a lifelong resident, this is a perfect moment to celebrate what makes the Seaport so special—community, history, and the always-warm welcome of the Seaport Museum.
