Mission
SEE SCHEDULE OMUSEUM OF THE MOVING IMAGE (MOMI) IS THE ONLY MUSEUM IN THE U.S. THAT EXPLORES THE CENTRAL TECHNOLOGY OF THE PRESENT MOMENT.SCREENS ARE ALL AROUND US. WE USE THEM TO EDUCATE, ENTERTAIN, AND COMMUNICATE. THE MOVING IMAGE-ENCOMPASSING FILM, TELEVISION, VIDEO GAMES, AND OTHER FORMS OF DIGITAL MEDIA-SHAPES HOW WE SEE AND FEEL THE WORLD. WITH EXHIBITIONS?AND SCREENINGS ON THE ART, HISTORY, TECHNIQUE, AND SCIENCE OF THE MOVING IMAGE, MOMI PRESENTS THE REAL AND IMAGINED WORLDS OF OUR PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE. WITH GROUND-BREAKING EDUCATION PROGRAMS, DIGITAL LITERACY INITIATIVES, AND CUTTING-EDGE MEDIA LABS, MOMI IS NOT JUST A MUSEUM BUT ALSO A PLACE WHERE WE CAN ALL MAKE SENSE OF THE FORCES AND EXPERIENCES THAT CREATE OUR SHARED REALITY. MOMI IS AN OPEN WORLD IN THE HEART OF BOTH ASTORIA, NYC, AND OUR ENTIRE CREATIVE COMMUNITY.
