As a center for history and innovation, Intrepid Museum’s programs and exhibitions amplify the real experiences of those on the frontlines of history and the stories behind the engineering marvels in our collection. Curious individuals of all ages and abilities are invited to experience wonder, ask questions and be inspired to seek creative solutions to the 21st century’s greatest challenges.
The Intrepid Museum’s nationally-recognized K-12 education programs support and expand school-based learning and student understanding of history and innovations in engineering and technology both in and out of school. This is achieved through an integrated, multimodal approach, including exploration through the arts, using the examples of the past to spark ideas for solutions to 21st-century challenges. K-12 students are engaged through long-term partnerships, residencies, and field trips.
Our Learning Library offers thematic content and lessons through historic photographs, oral histories and videos. It’s free to explore and download for learners of all ages and abilities.
The Intrepid Museum believes in the transformative potential of youth when equipped with resources and supported by adult allies. Our year-round programs foster civic responsibility, leadership skills, and career exploration. These initiatives include paid internships, mentorship days, and specialized programs for teens, focusing on 21st-century technology and the aerospace industry.
