Reviews
"We went here for a children's event for Black History Month. It was a great afternoon for my almost 3 y.o. and 8 y.o. The arts and crafts portion was the biggest hit! Wish the museum had more exhibits, but we'd definitely go to another youth event!!"
"Was pleasantly surprised that this museum had an art station for my girls (age 3 and 4) to make their own piece of art inspired by the artist on exhibit. Very nice spot to spend a couple hours, with nearby park and surroundings that are also scenic and historical if you want to get your culture on."
"The Queens museum is a wonderful free museum that has one of the best kept secrets in NYC. The panorama of the entire city of New York is absolutely stunning and unbelievably massive. The temporomandibular exhibits were very interesting but we spent more time in the panorama than anywhere. The weather did not cooperate for us to explore the park around the museum much but the Unosphere outside is also FAR larger than I was expecting which makes it far more interesting! Highly recommend checking it out! It is a bit difficult to get to via public transit so I'd recommend using some form of ride-sharing service or driving your personal vehicle."
"This was a wonderfully emotional experience for me as I attended the 1964 World's Fair as a one-year-old child (at least my parents tell me I did and I've seen photos of me in a stroller at the fair!). The NYC diorama was especially dear to me since I vividly recall riding the tram that circled the original site during a school trip to Flushing Meadows Park when I was about six or seven years old. I particularly remember the airplanes that would appear to land and take off at LaGuardia Airport and was so thrilled that this functioning feature has actually been preserved m in the current diorama. The museum though not extensive, has many souvenirs and other artifacts from the 1964 World's Fair on the second floor as we as a topographical model of the NYC watershed that's also from the original Fair. Admission is free but I put a few dollars in the donation box on the way out. It was well worth all of the nostalgia and warm emotions that this visit evoked in me!"
"What a fun museum. Free parking & admission. The Panorama is so detailed & a ton of fun for all ages. I spent an hour inside. The lights go from bright to dark to mimic day & night over the city. I highly recommend coming here. It's fun & educational. Cute giftshop too."
