The Queens Museum (formerly the Queens Museum of Art) is an art museum and educational center at Flushing Meadows–Corona Park in the borough of Queens in New York City, New York, U.S. Established in 1972, the museum has among its permanent exhibitions the Panorama of the City of New York, a room-sized scale model of the five boroughs originally built for the 1964 New York World's Fair. It also has a large archive of artifacts from both the 1939 and 1964 World's Fairs, a selection of which is on display. As of 2018[update], Queens Museum's director is Sally Tallant.
The museum's building was constructed for the 1939 New York World's Fair as the New York City Pavilion. The structure was used by the United Nations General Assembly from 1946 to 1950 and was reused as the city's pavilion for the 1964 World's Fair. The structure was preserved following the World's Fair, serving as a museum and an ice-skating rink. The museum was renovated in the 1990s and expanded significantly in the 2010s. Another expansion was announced in the 2020s.
