After making a splash at the Mission Chicago convention earlier this month, the lovely Star Trek: Strange New Worlds costume and prop exhibit is heading to the Big Apple as the Paley Center for the Media is set to launch a new look at the final frontier in the coming days.
The Visional Universe of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds opens April 27, where the props, costumes, and (replica) set pieces first seen at the Chicago convention will beam down to the Paley Center’s New York City venue.
Along with the screen-used pieces, the first public screening of the new series’ first two episodes will debut on Sunday, May 1 — four days ahead of the Paramount+ premiere on May 5 — with reservations open to the general public starting April 22 at the Paley Center website.

Not only will Strange New Worlds get time in the Paley Center’s spotlight, however: throughout the next month, the venue will hold daily screenings (Wednesday-Sunday) of many of the franchise’s pilot episodes, including “The Cage,” Discovery’s “The Vulcan Hello,” TNG’s “Encounter at Farpoint,” Picard’s “Remembrance,” and Lower Decks’ “Second Contact.”
Young Star Trek fans will also have a reason to visit, as Star Trek: Prodigy and the original Animated Series will also get weekend screenings, along with Prodigy “family activities” which include craft projects for kids.
