It’s been a while since our last post!
The weather has been getting nicer after a winter full of snow. (On that note, can you believe NYC public school closed TWICE?! School never closed when we younger… but we digress). The nice weather makes for long walks, exploring parks, museums and other fun FoHi and it’s close neighborhoods have to offer. While Manhattan,and even Brooklyn, are often the first places people think of for NYC arts and culture, Queens doesn’t do to bad in this area either!
We have PS1 and it’s awesome summer warm up parties, galleries all over Astoria and Long Island City, and right next to FoHi we’re lucky to have Flushing Meadows Corona Park and everything that comes with it! The Queens Botanical Garden, NY Hall of Science, Queens Zoo, Queens Theater in the Park and the Queens Museum of Art. Did anyone go to that crazy sea battle last summer the museum hosted?! Queens and culture go hand in hand. We list some local picks on our “Local Links,” but we’d like to pose a few questions to you:
1- Any local culture links you think we’re missing?
2- What’s your favorite place for arts/culture in Queens?
3- Although we have some nearby spots, do you think FoHi itself is lacking in this area?
