THE BIG BUILD

THE BIG BUILD returns to The National Building Museum on October 17. This annual FREE, STEM-focused community day for all ages explores the depth and breadth of what construction does for us in our built environment. It's also a great introduction to the many trade career possibilities that are so vital - whether it’s an urban planning project or building a home.
