Turnstile Tours

Our founding mission is to advance public knowledge about the meaning of place, foster connections and understanding between people of diverse backgrounds, and inspire and reflect a culture of community participation through providing welcoming, well-researched, inclusive, and engaging educational experiences and resources to people of all ages and abilities. We strive to achieve this mission through Turnstile Tours, which operates public tour programming in partnership with select non-profit organizations in New York City, and Turnstile Studio, our consulting and research practice that supports institutions around the world in engaging the public in place-making efforts and in the development of tours, programs, and exhibits. Public and Private Tours include: * Brooklyn Navy Yard Tours * Brooklyn Army Terminal Walking Tours * Food Cart Walking Tours - Midtown & Financial District * Prospect Park Tour * Public Market Tours at Essex Street Market on Manhattan's Lower East Side and Moore Street Market in Williamsburg, Brooklyn * Custom Tours Turnstile Studio, the consulting arm of our company, allows us to extend this mission beyond the tour programs we currently operate in New York City. We are always looking for partners and clients who share these values, and we seek to share the depth and breadth of our experience and expertise to support cultural sites, community-based institutions, economic development organizations, and other non-profits, in their efforts to more effectively engage the public through place-making projects, exhibitions, tours, and public programs.
