Pratt in the City is a series of short, experiential classes for locals and tourists alike seeking culture-forward ways to explore New York City. Rooted in place-based learning and the Pratt perspective, these workshops transform the city into an active site of creative practice, inviting participants to engage directly with its neighborhoods, institutions, and public spaces.

Open to all levels, each workshop offers an accessible, immersive opportunity to make and think alongside the unique history and culture of the city.
