On Tuesday, the Paley Center said that in October it will introduce a New York incarnation of its annual PaleyFest, focusing on shows and talent based here. This festival, called PaleyFest: Made in NY and presented in partnership with the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, will run from Oct. 2 through 6 at the Paley Center for Media, at 25 West 52nd Street.

Though a full lineup of programming was not immediately announced, the Paley Center said in a news release that events will include panels with actors and creators from “Orange Is the New Black,†“Elementary,†“The Americans,†“The Outs†and “Boardwalk Empire.â€
