About

MoMA PS1 is a leading contemporary art center in Long Island City, Queens, housed in a former 1892 Romanesque Revival public school; founded by Alanna Heiss as P.S.1 in 1976, it formally affiliated with MoMA in 2000. It’s known for experimental exhibitions and programs like the Warm Up summer music series and Sunday Sessions that activate its galleries and courtyard. The 125,000-square-foot complex serves as a cultural anchor for the Court Square area and regularly hosts large-scale events.
