Artists Against the Bomb, the campaign organized by Estudio Pedro Reyes with ICAN, the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize winner, takes over PS1's Homeroom with posters, film, sculpture and ephemera pushing for the nuclear weapons ban treaty. Artists with PS1 ties, including Regina José Galindo, Carlos Amorales and Art & Language, sit alongside new work. With admission free for everyone, it is an easy, pointed stop in Long Island City.
What to expect
Homeroom is a focused gallery rather than a full-floor blockbuster, so expect a dense room of protest graphics, film and objects you can see in under an hour. Pair it with the rest of the former schoolhouse, including the James Turrell Meeting room and Precious Okoyomon's courtyard commission.

- Allow extra time for other ongoing works like James Turrell's Meeting.
- The courtyard commission is outdoors, so dress for the weather.
