All About the Legacy and History of Alice Austen:

Alice Austen

Alice Austen was born in 1866, and she became one of America's earliest female photographers. I am going to give you a little insight into the artistic world of Alice Austen.

The Staten Island Zoo is an 8 acre suburban zoo in the West New Brighton section of Staten Island. The zoo is open all year, with the exception of Christmas, New Year's Day and Thanksgiving.

NYPD

Our 2022 NYPD Cookie Delivery was a HUGE success! Thank you to all the generous sponsors and volunteers that made it possible. A few days ago we had the incredible honor of accompanying Santa Claus on his visit to all the NYPD Precincts of Staten Island. It was there where we helped him distribute over 500 tins of cookies for each and every officer, so that they can bring something home to their families this holiday season! They say it's the season of giving...well we wanted to make sure that we gave to those who give so much to us on a daily basis. Thank You to the men & women of the NYPD for welcoming us into your homes away from home and spreading some holiday cheer!
