The Queens Museum is undertaking a Year of Uncertainty (YoU), a framework for strengthening connections among the Museum, our communities, and constituents, focused on creating new possibilities for culture, kinship, and mutual support.
About
Centered around themes of Care, Repair, Play, Justice, and The Future, this program responds to hyperlocal and international states of precarity that have been heightened by the COVID-19 pandemic, including the crises of inaction and unaccountability toward racial justice and xenophobia, climate reparations, and income disparity. In January 2021, the Museum invited six Artists-In-Residence, nine Community Partners, and twelve Co-Thinkers to be at the center of YoU.
Working together with Queens Museum staff across departments and our constituents, this community is informing and participating in a reimagining of the Museum and its infrastructure. Now, outputs of this learning and process are being shared here in the galleries, through public conversations, activations, and presentations across all spaces and platforms of the Museum.
These public-facing presentations are scheduled to unfold and evolve over the course of three phases:
I. October 2021 — Participate & Build invites visitors to join the co-creation of projects in progress through public programming.
II. November-December 2021 — Engage & Experience highlights exhibitions and activations in their further developed state. I
III. January-February 2022 — Synthesize & Reflect concludes the year of collective research.
