The wait is over. Culture Lab is officially throwing open the doors to launch our 2026 season with two powerful new exhibitions that span from the global to the hyper-local.

​The Exhibitions:

🖌️ MODERN INK: CROSSING MEDIA, BLENDING CULTURES – An exploration of the profound evolution of Chinese ink on paper. Curated by Ethan Cohen in collaboration with Kong Fu Ink, this show brings a masterclass in contemporary tradition to LIC.

​📸 THE STORIES BEHIND THEIR NAMES: QUEENS WOMEN IN ACTION – A deep dive into the leadership and legacy of the women who built our borough. Curated by the Queens Memory Project, this is a celebration of the activists and icons in our own backyard.

🎶 Live music (Lineup TBA!)
🍷 Open beer, wine, and light fare

​Come for the art, stay for the community, and help us kick off our biggest year yet. Whether you're here for the ink or the icons, there's a place for you here!

​FREE to the public.
