Tickets are available for our team-up show with Queens Memory and the Greater Astoria Historical Society!
No, YOU Tell It! “My Place” explores the personal stories behind our shared Queens spaces. Purchase tickets here.
At our May 3 workshop, the four No, YOU Tell It! storytellers will interact with the Queens Name Explorer—a digital map developed by Queens Memory—to find “My Place” in Queens.
Feel free to come join in on the fun! The free May 3 workshop at the Queens Public Library at Broadway in Astoria is open to all!
On May 28, come hear the four NYTI storytellers trade true tales inspired by the historical significance behind the people’s names that grace Queens streets, parks, monuments, and more.
