The Challenge

The Queens Museum is dedicated to presenting the highest quality visual arts and educational programming for people in the New York metropolitan area. After a $65 million dollar expansion project was completed in 2013 – doubling its current size – revised exterior signage was needed to highlight the newly created façade from various vantage points.

Customer Solution

Queens Museum wanted the signage to perfectly compliment the exterior design of the building. Using unique in-house metal fabrication and design capabilities, VGS delivered an eye-catching result – perforated aluminum panels, powder-coated for a soft appearance and screen printed on both sides. Fabricated aluminum letters, face-lit with LED lighting, sit above the main entrance. Under tight deadlines and city code restrictions, VGS’ installation was a complete success.
