Over the past two decades, one Greenwich Village resident has quietly transformed his residence into a living museum filled with hundreds of rare antiques, mechanical wonders, and bizarre inventions from another time — each with a story to tell, and a lesson to teach. Now he’s inviting curious New Yorkers to step inside and explore a cabinet of curiosities unlike anything else in the city. Get ready for a fun, hands‑on journey through history inside an apartment full of surprises.

Join New York Adventure Club for a behind‑the‑scenes visit to the headquarters of The Museum of Interesting Things, a dynamic traveling exhibition of antiques and inventions curated to inspire curiosity, creativity, and a deeper appreciation for how innovation evolves over time.

Led by Denny Daniel, Founder and Curator of The Museum of Interesting Things, our unique experience will include:

• A behind-the-scenes look at the origins and evolution of The Museum of Interesting Things, and how one man’s curiosity turned into a traveling exhibition
• Hands-on time with rare artifacts from the collection, including wind-up record players, Edison wax cylinders, stereoscopes, and rotary phones
• Interactive demonstrations of mechanical marvels in action, such as a 1920s mutoscope, Victorian optical toys, and a rotor from an original Enigma machine
• How these objects shaped daily life and innovation, with surprising insights into their cultural and technological impact

This experience is limited to ten guests.
See you there!

*The exact apartment of the Museum of Interesting Things headquarters will be revealed in the ticket confirmation email sent immediately upon registration.
***Please note that space within the residence is limited; most items from the collection will be brought to a central area for showcasing.

About Denny
Denny Daniel started working as a freelance filmmaker/documentor and photo retoucher/restorer for such companies as The Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island, Songs of Love, and the New York Times.
Amassing his collection of antiques since the 1980’s, and having had over 20 museum and gallery exhibitions of his own work at locations like the Chelsea Art Museum, he decided to use his knowledge, experience, contacts and extensive collection of over 300 antiques to start an enterprise that would inspire students and some of us in the “real” world to learn from the past and innovate a better future.
