Ticket includes admission to all exhibitions in addition to Hive.

Visit Hive in the National Building Museum's Great Hall. Soaring to the uppermost reaches of the Museum, Hive is comprised of thousands of colorful paper tubes interlocked to create awe-inspiring, interactive chambers. The installation, designed by architecture and urban design practice Studio Gang, features elements that challenge visitor perceptions of light, sound, and space. The experience also includes building activities for families. 

Hive is part of the Museum's Summer Block Party series, featuring music, weekly Wednesday Late Nights, and food and beverages from Hill Country’s Backyard Barbecue; separate ticket required for Wednesday Late Nights, see Hive page details.
