Staten Island: Making History
Staten Island Making History showcases people, places, and ideas that define and expand understanding of this borough. From Lenapehoking, through the formation of a nation and capital of the world, to the present day — this new exhibition presents rich history through more than one hundred rarely seen objects, photographs, oral histories, artwork, and archival materials in the museum’s collection.
76th Annual Fence Show - Fine Arts & Crafts Festival
Each year, the Fence Show transforms the Museum’s front lawn into an outdoor gallery featuring local artists and craftspeople. See and purchase paintings, ceramics, prints, jewelry and textiles and take something original home from this longstanding festival.
