US: You have airport stories. Now, an airport will write a story for you.

Terminal A in New York City’s La Guardia Airport can be a disorienting place. It’s a satellite terminal, meaning it isn’t connected to the rest of the airport. Upon entering you find few of the amenities familiar in America’s busiest airports today. Now, passengers arriving or departing there are greeted with a surprise: a piece of live, performance art. In a space outside security that used to be a Hudson News kiosk, the writers and close friends Gideon Jacobs and Lexie Smith, who both live in Ridgewood, Queens, have set up a writing nook with stacks of books, wooden furniture, rugs and a vintage typewriter. There they are, writing unique, fictional stories for fliers. This specific initiative, named Landing Pages, is part of a residency program established by the Queens Council on the Arts and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs La Guardia Airport. Over the coming year Queens-based artists are taking over the airport space for three months at a time to experiment with their mediums. <br/>
