Online Exhibitions

The Staten Island Museum presents changing exhibitions that explore the dynamic connections between art, natural science, and history and explore global themes through a local lens.

FEATURED

Apart Together

This exhibition examines the work, lives, and legacy of the "Black Angels," the mostly Black nursing staff at Sea View Hospital who played an important role in breaking racial barriers among the network of municipal hospitals treating tuberculosis during the mid-1900s. It is centered around the voice of Virginia Allen. Her recollections paint a vivid picture of life as a Black nurse in New York City's public hospital system in the mid-1900s.
