Have you had a chance to see this yet? In early May 2019, WSM installed its first permanent exhibit! Ithaca’s motion picture history is highlighted in this original installation at the new Tompkins Center for History & Culture on the Commons in downtown Ithaca at 110 North Tioga St. The exhibit features a timeline of movie history and melds text, graphics, and images to celebrate the role Ithaca played in early American filmmaking.
