Live Panoram Demonstration

Join us for a special event, in which the full reel of eight Soundies from our current exhibition Coin-Operated Treasures: Black-Cast Soundies from the Astoria Studios will play on 16mm on the Museum’s Panoram machine. Barbara Miller, MoMI’s Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs, and Susan Delson, author of Soundies and the Changing Image of Black Americans on Screen, One Dime at a Time (2022) and curator of the recently released four-disc set Soundies: The Ultimate Collection (2023), will introduce the screening and answer questions. 

Free with Museum admission.
