  • Clean, plenty of restrooms, no coat check or bag check and wish it was brought to my attention before. Use your map and download the app of the museum layout you will need it. Get yourself use to...

  • I have to give it 5 stars. I mean, the collection is insane. This is on my top 3 museums globally. However, it is a lot. You will get super tired and spend a lot of time if you like art. I would recommend starting from up to down and taking a break to grab something to eat on the cafe or the rooftop. I was short in time so I did not do that and I was mentally exhausted by the time I left. The store is good but lacks a bit of variety in the cheap souvenirs. I am old fashioned in museums and would rather have a printed map. Global students pay half price ($14). Student ID is required but they did not look mine particularly. It was busy in a Tuesday so I can only imagine the weekend. Still completely comfortable to walk through and no line at any moment.
  • The first Friday of the month is free for local New Yorkers to visit but you need to book the tickets in advance. Also they have free pen and paper and even chairs for visitors to participate drawing. The terrace cafe was pretty good. In the evening they have DJ music and open bar in the garden. It was very chill and fun. I love the activities and interaction that they offered. I like this museum better than Guggenheim.
  • My new favorite art museum. There’s about 6 levels and over 400+ rooms of art here 🤯 — from sculptures, paintings, to multi-media. I loved the versatility of projects and exhibits. They’re were all veneers present too. It was just an amazing experience. They have cafes (but no food/water are allowed in the museum), a bar, and stores. The whole establishment is so clean and tidy. We spent about 2hrs and didn’t even see everything. It’s easily a 4hrs adventure if you have to time to spare. I left inspired and refreshed. It was $25/per person and there is security.
  • I had wanted to visit for so long and when I finally did, I was not disappointed! So many amazing and ground breaking pieces all beautifully displayed. I stayed for hours and will definitely go back. The museum store is also great - so many gift ideas and things you'll want to bring home.
  • Came here on a Saturday for my birthday weekend and had a great time! The museum is so spacious that even on a busy day, you have your own space to move around and admire the artwork. You don't realize how many exhibits there are from the outside! I absolutely loved being able to see Starry Night in person! Definitely one of the most anticipated paintings in there, so expect to wait a few minutes before seeing it up close and taking a photo!
