Archtober
Oct 1, 2026 - Oct 31, 2026
Description
Among New York City’s architects and building buffs, October is Archtober—or Architecture and Design Month. The City’s design community opens its doors for scores of tours, lectures, films and celebrations, offering behind-the-scenes peeks at the buildings that give this metropolis its distinct character, throughout all five boroughs and across the tristate area. This year’s theme, “In Our Hands,” is meant to remind us about our shared responsibility toward society’s future as we face climate change, the progression of AI and political division. Past participants include some of the City’s more popular attractions—the Museum of Modern Art, Cooper Hewitt, the Guggenheim, the AIA New York and its Center for Architecture, Central Park Conservancy and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum among them—as well as more underground experiences like Secrets of Grand Central and tours of the Green-Wood Cemetery catacombs.
