Wedged between a tiny linen store and discount clothing outlet in the heart of Jamaica, Queens, is a former theater that — at first look — appears equally unassuming. Though just beyond the front doors is one of the most impressive architectural masterpieces in all of New York. It’s time to explore one of New York’s greatest hidden gems like never before.
Join New York Adventure Club for an exclusive look inside the historic landmarked Loew’s Valencia Theatre in Queens, one of the five Loew’s “wonder theatre” movie palaces built in the New York City area between 1929-1930.
Led by a member of the Tabernacle of Prayer for All People, the church that has maintained the building since the 1970s, our unique experience at this opulent theatre will include: a discussion around the history and story of the Valencia Theatre, from once being the most successful movie theatre in Queens to its acquisition by the Tabernacle of Prayer for All People in 1979; a walkthrough of the original lobby, parlors, and hallways; a closer look inside the main 3,554-seat auditorium, which is decorated in a mix of Spanish Colonial and pre-Columbian styles; an incredibly rare opportunity to see the theatre’s atmospheric ceiling in action, with its hundreds of flickering lights representing a starry night.
Tickets $35+fees.
