New and Improved Family Time
and Cool Culture Connect Audio Guide
Many low-income families don't know about New York City's many cultural institutions, where they are, or what they offer. Outlets usually employed by cultural institutions to promote their programs often do not reach low-income families.

Cool Culture provides each participating family a subscription to Family Time, a quarterly publication that provides a borough-by-borough listing of cultural attractions, including practical information on hours and public transportation, as well as a calendar of events especially geared toward families and young children.
