Andy Newman/The New York Times You can make a micro-apartment diorama this Sunday at the Museum of the City of New York. Or you could make one at home, as Violet, 8, did in Brooklyn.This assignment is about Very Small Apartments.
Right now at the Museum of the City of New York in Manhattan, there is an exhibit of very small apartments that architects designed for a contest held by the city. (The winning design will be used to make a whole building full of very small apartments.)
On Sunday, the Museum is having a special activity for kids: you can go there and make your very own very small apartment, from a shoebox and other art supplies. You should go! We will be there and will take photos of some of your shoebox apartments and make a slideshow of them here on Kids Draw the News.
The Museum of the City of New York is at 1220 Fifth Avenue at 103rd Street. Here is a link to their small apartments exhibit.
If you can not make it to the museum on Sunday, you can also make a very small apartment at home and send us a picture of it for the slideshow. To send a photo of your small apartment directly to us, follow the instructions here: Submit Artwork Â'
