Join Archivists Round Table for a tour of the recently opened Red Hook Pinball Museum, in Red Hook, Brooklyn! We'll be led on a tour by the museum's co-founders before the space is open to the general public, to get an in-depth look at the pinball machines, many of which are from the 1960s and 1970s. We'll have ample time to play some pinball, too!
Afterwards, please join us for an optional self-guided visit to Pioneer Works to see their current exhibit, Raúl de Nieves: In Light of Innocence, and for lunch in the area as well.
This is an in-person event limited to 25 attendees. Registration is non-transferable. Please note that you MUST reserve a ticket in advance online in order to attend this event. Admission is a $20 donation to the museum per person (this donation includes the ability to play the pinball machines!). Your registration covers this donation.
In the occasion that the event is sold out, we highly recommend joining the waitlist. An ART staff member will reach out to you if a spot becomes available. Unless you've been given permission, please do not show up at the event without registering.
