This year, during the third week of April, a series of events throughout New York City’s five boroughs will celebrate the history and contributions of immigrants to the city’s cultural and economic life.  Immigrant Heritage Week, a project of the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs, has inspired The Queens Museum of Art to solicit storytelling audio projects about families’ immigration experiences.  The jukebox will be placed in their Café, and the projects used as a playlist for other museum events.

1. Create a mix CD at least 10 minutes long on the theme of immigration journeys (in cd audio format, not MP3)
2. Label the CD with your name and title of the mix CD if any (no stickers please)
3. Include a playlist and/or short paragraph describing your mix CD, or if you prefer, original cover art. This will be displayed in the jukebox and must be no larger than typical CD jewelcase cover.
4. On the case/sleeve of the CD, include your name, last name, telephone and email address, so we can send you a thank you for your participation.
5. Mail your masterpiece to:

Att: Gabriel Roldós
Queens Museum of Art
NYC Bldg, Flushing Meadows Corona Park
Queens, NY 11368
