Know-it-alls can be very annoying, but in this event, they are essential. Participants test their mastery of NYC geography against the experts during the sixth annual Panorama Challenge at the Queens Museum of Art on February 28. The world’s only geographical trivia-based game involving the world’s largest architectural model, The Panorama of the City of New York, the challenge involves audio clues and laser-pointers highlighting assorted NYC landmarks, bridges, neighborhoods, parks, etc. Teams — divided into New York Novices and Panorama Pros — try to identify all 30 locations as per rules set by the quizmaster, Jonathan Turer from Levys’ Unique New York. The winning teams in both divisions are added to QMA’s Champions Trophy. Though the competition is fierce, this is actually a charity event, and all proceeds go to Williamsburg’s City Reliquary Museum, a nonprofit community museum and civic organization.
