Queens Museum is getting religion. On Saturday, the renovated venue will host a special event during which the LaGuardia Performing Arts Center and LaGuardia Community College will present an interactive theater demonstration and community forum, followed by an opening reception for a gallery show.
The theater segment is designed to stimulate group-talk about Islam in New York City after the 9/11 terror attacks. After the conversations, the museum will unveil The Faces of Islam, an exhibition featuring photos of local politicians, community leaders, and LaGuardia students, staffers, and family members who are Muslim. The images, which were taken by students over two semesters, will be on display until March 1st.
Details: The Faces of Islam: Theater Demonstration, Community Forum and Exhibition Opening, Queens Museum, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, February 7th, 3 pm to 6 pm, suggested donation.
