The Woods

“The Woods” is an exhibition for kids at the Bronx Children’s Museum, presented as a live, on-site program rather than a passive gallery stop. It uses the idea of a forest as a framework for hands-on play, sensory exploration, and simple lessons about habitats and change. In a city where nature is often mediated by parks and screens, the piece treats environmental literacy as something built through touch and movement. Its quiet strength is that it respects children as investigators, not just spectators.
