Queens Library Gallery
Established in 1995, the Gallery is an adjunct to the Queens Borough Public Library, which serves the neighborhoods of Queens, the country's most culturally diverse community. Located in the Central Library in Jamaica, the Gallery offers museum-quality exhibitions and arts education activities designed to complement library services. Each year the Gallery presents several exhibitions which explore history, art, literature, children's themes or ethnic culture. Its mission is to foster awareness and appreciation of the visual arts and encourage an understanding and sensitivity for the arts in the greater community.
