About Snug Harbor Cultural Center

Snug Harbor Cultural Center sits on 83 acres along the waterfront in Staten Island, offering a rich mix of art, science, and performance. The site includes the Honorable Ralph J. Lamberti Music Hall (formerly the Music Hall), the historic 1892 theater, and multiple on-site tenants like the Newhouse Center for Contemporary Art, the Staten Island Museum, the Staten Island Children’s Museum, and the Noble Maritime Collection. Whether you’re catching a concert, exploring a rotating exhibition, or attending a family-friendly event, you’ll find a range of spaces and experiences on the property. We’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining to make your visit smooth and uncomplicated.
