We miss your Funny Faces! Please join the Coney Island Museum — on Zoom — for Once Upon a Time in Coney Island, a salon-like evening of readings, stories, performances, and memories that capture the heart and soul of the People’s Playground. Hosted by the inimitable Adam Realman, our Museum benefit will feature luminaries including Neil Gaiman, Alice Hoffman, Kevin Baker, Bill Griffith, Todd Robbins, Richard Eagan, Trav SD, and others to be announced. Amid the chaos and strife that defined 2020, this special event is an easy escape into the wonders of Coney Island. Apart but together, we’ll focus on what makes this place so magical … and with your generous support, begin the next chapter in its spectacular story.

Brooklyn-based artist Martin Mazorra has produced (is releasing) a NEW series of six limited edition prints inspired by Coney Island USA's own Sideshows by the Seashore, and is donating 50% of the proceeds of the sales to Coney Island USA, and their invaluable arts programming. Each Print in the series pays tribute to a particular act or archetype associated with amazing physical feats of showmanship commonly associated with the Sideshow.
These 18 x 24 inch beauties are executed using the same process as poster work from the carnival and circus Heyday. Each of the images are hand-hewn wood carvings printed in combination with antique wooden display type on a 1930's Letterpress operated and maintained by the artist himself. Every impression, all of the color ink combinations, and each detail, are carefully planned and executed in the time-honored dark arts with all but one difference; The matrix used to apply the color were Legos - a feat that demands a lengthier explanation, we know, one that you'll have to see to believe!
