Sensations: Culture, Community, Courage

Before

0.1 mi · 3 min walk - Flushing

The only comprehensive art collection in Queens, about six thousand objects held on the fourth floor of Klapper Hall at Queens College. It runs from ancient Egyptian and classical material through prints by Dürer and Rembrandt to twentieth-century work, and it mounts changing shows alongside the permanent holdings. Admission is free. It keeps university hours, which means weekdays and the academic calendar.

After

short ride recommended · 7 min - Flushing

A tong sui shop on Prince Street doing the Hong Kong sweet soups, served warm or cold depending on what you order. Ginger milk pudding is the one to get, set by the ginger itself rather than by gelatin, and there is mango pomelo sago and taro mochi paste for anyone who wants something colder. Nothing on the menu is a cake and nothing is built to be photographed. It stays open to eleven every night, which in this neighborhood is where dessert actually happens.
