Gargoyles, Art and Scavenger Hunts at NYC's Cathedral of St. John the Divine
Submitted by Raven Snook on
My family and I have a long personal history with the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, a beautiful cultural destination in Morningside Heights. It's where I went to elementary school as a child, and where my 9-year-old daughter now attends summer camp at ACT, an early education and recreation program located under the stately building.
For those who don't live nearby, the Cathedral offers lots of enriching drop-in fun for visitors of all ages and denominations. From medieval-themed sleepovers and family art workshops, to fabulous annual festivals and art installations, to exploring amazing stained-glass windows, neo-Gothic architecture and landscaped grounds, a trip to the Cathedral makes for a transcendent and mostly FREE family daycation.
