American Museum of the Moving Image
Located at the site of the former Astoria Studios (now operating as the Kaufman-Astoria Studios) in the borough of Queens in New York City (USA), the Museum of the Moving Image (originally named the Astoria Motion Picture and Television Center Foundation) was founded in 1977. Its mission statement is to educate "the public about the art, history, technique, and technology of film, television, and digital media and to examine their impact on culture and society."
