Explore the unique architecture of Crystal Bridges during Second Saturday: Build It!

Discover the innovative design and stunning features of our museum and learn how it all came together. Then head to the classrooms to get creative with Tinkertoys and LEGOs, and design your own structure as part of Cardboard City. You can also assemble a cityscape in a fun drop-in artmaking activity inspired by Oscar Bluemner’s Motive of Space and Form—A New Jersey Village (Montville)!

Afterward, chat with our expert guides to learn more about the architecture and history of Crystal Bridges, and be sure to stop by the South Lobby for an interactive Art Cart all about Frank Lloyd Wright. Join us for a fascinating look at how art and architecture come together in our beautiful space!

Gallery Talks: 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM

Join our architecture guides for two engaging talks on the Crystal Bridges campus. At 11:00 AM, meet in the South Lobby for a conversation about the Frank Lloyd Wright house on our grounds. Then at 1:00 PM, join a guide in-gallery for a discussion on Crystal Bridges’ architectural story and insights into the new expansion.
