Second Open House — March 26 - April 5, 2026
Following the successful launch of the inaugural Open House events in September 2025, MCA will host a second cross-organizational Open House from Thursday, March 26 through Sunday, April 5, 2026. Offering both free and paid programming spread across all five partner organizations, MCA invites visitors to experience our locality as one of New York’s signature destination neighborhoods.
Participate in the MCA Passport Stamp Rally to redeem a free gift! A visitor to any one event on this Open House will receive a special “passport” and collect a stamp upon attendance at any one of the five organizations. Once collecting three stamps on their passport, a visitor may then redeem a free gift from up to three different organizations of their choice.
