Saturday, June 7, 2025 - SeaGlass Carousel

 

`

SeaGlass Carousel is a whimsical architectural gem located at the southern tip of Manhattan in Battery Park. Set within a glowing glass-and-steel pavilion shaped like a nautilus shell, this underwater-themed carousel features 30 giant illuminated fish that rotate and glide with light and music. Surrounded by lush gardens and just steps away from New York Harbor, the area offers a dreamlike blend of nature, light, and fantasy—perfect for sparking your sketching imagination. You can find out more about it by visiting seaglasscarousel.nyc
