MUSEUM AT A GLANCE Museum of the Moving Image is the country's only museum dedicated to the art, history, technique, and technology of the moving image in all its forms. The Museum is a one-of-a-kind destination for audiences of all ages and interests, from connoisseurs of classic cinema to children and families to avid gamers. Embracing a wide range of subjects, from nineteenth century optical toys to the latest in digital art, the Museum explores every phase of the production, promotion, and exhibition of moving images. It offers an engaging, highly interactive core exhibition, programs of contemporary and classic films from around the world, discussions with leading figures in film and television, a unique collection, inspiring educational programs for learners of all ages, stimulating changing exhibitions, and groundbreaking online projects.
After browsing the Museum we will grab a bite to eat at a local restaurant (Pizzeria Uno or 5 Napkin Burger) are close by.
There will be a $2.00 event fee.
Museum admission is $12.00 for adults and $9.00 for seniors.

EileenMeeting the women and the organizer, Lou, was good. Lou was a caring organizer, who worked things out with meeting each other around the museum and keeping time planned to rendezvous everyone over to dinner. He is a gentleman. Hope to see the women and Lou again soon and I will attend meetups with the Young Seniors of NY again.

Risa BethThe meet up was very nice. A museum is a kind of difficult place to keep any group together, big or small but, somehow we ended up together for dining and good cheer. I thorougly enjoyed myself.

rosalind rowen rossi+1 guestMy first meetup with this group. I enjoyed the opportunity to discover this museum, and meet several members of the group. I was sorry to be unable to stay long enough to have dinner afterwards. Perhaps museum visits could be preceded by a lunch or snack, to give participants a chance to get to know one another a little bit before dispersing in different directions to explore the museum.
