Revisiting the World of Tomorrow: The 1964–65 World's Fair

The 1964–65 World’s Fair was a significant cultural event that showcased advances in American technology and culture. It included exhibitions, performances, activities, films, art and food. The NYC Department of Records and Information Services presents this look back with a display of images from the Municipal Library and Municipal Archives’ collections. The first-floor alcove at 31 Chambers Street takes visitors back in time, highlighting the transportation, religion and commerce components of the Fair through brochures and ephemera from that period.
