New York on Location

Come to Astoria, Queens for a free, family-friendly outdoor event that offers a behind-the-scenes look at film and TV production in New York. Go inside 18 working movie trailers and trucks—straight from productions shooting in New York—and speak directly with movie professionals about what they do on set. Trucks will include star dressing rooms, electrical, grip, prop, camera, wardrobe, special effects, weather effect, hair and makeup demonstrations, and more! Welcoming remarks begin at 12:00 p.m.

New York on Location is co-presented by MoMI, Teamsters Local 817, I.A.T.S.E. Local 52, and Kaufman Astoria Studios. Promotional support for Open Worlds and New York on Location is provided in part by the New York City Tourism Foundation. Media Partner: QNS.

Access to the Museum’s first floor and Kaufman Courtyard will be free as part of MoMI Open Worlds. Stop in to build a 3D world in virtual reality using the app Multibrush (recommended for ages 12+).  

All-day Sunday, Museum gallery admission will be 20% off (use code NYOL20)!
