The Museum of Ice Cream is opening its first permanent New York City location, according to a news release.

Co-founder and creative director of the museum Maryellis Bunn said the New York City digs has been a "dream" for three years.

"I want to continue to connect people and create moments of joy through ice cream. MOIC NYC will build upon Soho's artistic history and contribute to the neighborhood's resurgence as a place for imagination and creativity," Bunn said in a statement.

It will also feature a cafe and shop open to the public.

"We are excited to delight our fans back where MOIC began and continue to unite people through the power of ice cream," said co-founder Manish Vora.
