Showplace Entertainment Center

Features a live comedy club with both professional and local performers, offering themed comedy nights with programming ranging from family-friendly humor to edgier stand-up shows

Staten Island Museum

The Staten Island Museum operates on a pay-what-you-wish admission model with a suggested $8 for adults, making it an unusually affordable cultural institution
