Description

The galleries dissect the mechanics of screen culture, displaying the tools and artifacts behind film, television, and digital media. On the second floor, displays walk you through the filmmaking process, showcasing vintage cameras alongside props like E.T. and Exorcist dolls. The collection spans from a Sopranos installation and playable arcade games to a detailed look at Jim Henson's work on Sesame Street and the Muppets. The museum also hosts screenings and events in its theaters, though galleries can get crowded during peak hours.
