👀 Spending the weekend visiting Flushing Meadows Corona Park? Make the Queens Museum part of your plans! Two special exhibitions are currently on view (alongside The Panorama and our World's Fair Collection).

🎥 "Sonia Boyce: Demonstrate" brings together film, photography, kaleidoscopic wallpaper, and sound, created from two days of gatherings and events at the Museum. The exhibition features workshops, performances, and a procession led by the Resistance Revival Chorus captured across the galleries and into The Panorama of the City of New York.

📷 "About Us: The American Imaginary" spotlights three notions of "American" through photographs selected by the Terra Foundation Fellows (Christina Chan, Annette Parkins, and Carlos David Trujillo). Drawn from the Museum's collection and dating from the mid-nineteenth century to 1979, the images speak to family lore, migration, intimacy, and roots, asking: what is American about American Art?

This past weekend, the Queens Museum was proud to host a Community Baby Shower organized by Assemblymember Larinda Hooks and Council Member Shanel Thomas-Henry, bringing together families, community organizations, and local partners to support new and expecting parents.

The event connected attendees with essential baby items, including cribs and diapers, while creating opportunities to learn about the resources and organizations available throughout Queens. Queens Museum is honored to serve as a gathering place where our community can access care, support, and meaningful connections.

Thank you to all of the organizations, elected officials, and families who helped make the day possible. 💛
