Keep the competitive spirit high with an afternoon of New York City’s most incredible sports stories. Join the Seaport Museum and NYC’s Secrets & Lies to explore the grit and glory of the city’s athletic past, from legendary boxing gyms across the river to the front offices of the NBA.
This session features two elite guest experts: renowned photojournalist Arlene Schulman, who spent years documenting the raw world of NYC boxing, and Gina Antoniello, Academic Director at NYU’s Tisch Institute for Global Sport and a pioneer in professional sports communications. They will share unbelievable, firsthand accounts of how they broke barriers in NYC sports alongside other rising stars.
Then, the game is on! Creator Christa Avampato and public historian Alexa Rast will face off in a high-stakes "one-up" battle, trading increasingly wild mini-stories from NYC’s sports history. All are true—except for one. Can you spot the masterful lie to win exclusive prizes?
We’ll have plenty of light bites and drinks on hand, included in your ticket. After all, what’s a sporting event without a snack?
Preregistration is encouraged for this event. Walkups will be accommodated as possible.
