Queens Museum

EXHIBITION ENDING SOON AT THE QUEENS MUSEUM "The Queens Museum is excited to partner with Photoville 2021 on the presentation of two outdoor photography exhibitions: Malikah: Building Power and Safety for Our Communities – produced in collaboration with Malikah – in Astoria Park, and TransLatinx Resilience against COVID-19 – produced in collaboration with Colectivo Intercultural TRANSgrediendo – in Travers Park. Both projects were organized as part of the Queens Museum’s Year of Uncertainty and will be on view from September 18 to March 30, 2022. Malikah: Building Power and Safety for Our Communities aims to capture the love, strength, and joy within our community as we collectively use self-defense and healing as a tool to build power and safety for all women. Malikah was founded by Astoria native Rana Abdelhamid, to build community and share resources with people impacted by hate and gender-based violence in a post-9/11 New York City. This series highlights the beauty and importance of our individual and collective journeys as we work towards a more just world."
