""Where some people look past them, we share a common fascination. Geckos are some of the most diverse animals in the world.""
""We envision a future where our efforts bring often overlooked species into the spotlight.""
""Though small in size, the Gecko Gallery is big on mission: education, conservation and sparking a little wonder.""
""With its mix of science, spectacle and pure gecko charm, this quirky basement menagerie might just become your new favorite rainy-day spot.""
The Gecko Gallery, an upcoming reptile museum in East Williamsburg, will showcase NYC's largest public collection of about 150 rare geckos in a 400-square-foot space. Founded by biologists Richie Laleh and Joseph S. Migirov, the gallery evolved from a personal collection into a public exhibition after encouragement from building management. The mission emphasizes education, conservation, and promoting underappreciated species. Featured species include the Madagascar leaf-tailed gecko and New Caledonian giant gecko. With tickets priced at $20, the gallery anticipates attracting school groups and families seeking an engaging experience.
