A collection of antiques offers a look into Coney Island's past along with special events.
"The Mermaid Parade is an annual New York tradition that attracts thousands of spectators and participating sea creatures of every nature. The parade is produced by Coney Island USA, an arts organization devoted to “preserving the dignity of American popular culture.” See photos below." - work x work
"Open from Memorial Day through Labor Day, this unusual and awesome museum offers a peak into the area's history with a heaping of nostalgia. The permanent collection includes everything from funhouse mirrors and vintage bumper cars, to old postcards, photographs and modern works inspired by the past. Coney Island USA’s artist-in-residence, Marie Roberts, is the only traditional banner painter working in the area and her private studio is based upstairs in the museum building." - work x work
