Take a walk around the sculpture garden to absorb the art and beautiful architecture around you!Upvoted 1 week ago- 鈩仇潚娥潛庘檷October 14, 2016No trip to NYC is complete without visiting MOMA. Awesome haven in the midst of the robust city work life, with 6 whole floors of classic art to browse. Gets crazily crowded, but just go!
Teachers College Student AffairsJuly 1, 2013The MoMA can be daunting at first glance because of its sheer size and reputation. But worry not! Take it one floor at a time. The MoMA is a great place to learn and a beautiful space to explore.
- 鈩仇潚娥潛庘檷October 10, 2016Without a doubt one of the world's top art museums, filled with some of the best known pieces of all time. The collection includes works by Picasso, Monet, Van Gogh, Warhol and many others
DevontaAugust 25, 2012Very nice museum! Huge!!! Surprised all those people for comfortable in the museum with space to enjoy the art. Free Fridays presented by Target! 4 to 8 PM just get in line.
Date Night Is...April 30, 2013If a museum Date Night isn't already in your repertoire, you can't go wrong with the MoMA. Finish it off with a stop at The Modern for dinner or drinks to make a complete outing of it.
Robert NeumannJanuary 20, 2017Love this museum, a great mix between well known pieces and new things to discover at exhibits each time you go. Can't decide whether I like this or the Guggenheim better!
Dorien van LingeOctober 18, 2016I love this place, especially the fifth floor is amazing. Picasso, Van Gogh, Matisse, Malevich, Rothko... So many great painters, I was truly moved by their collection.
Wayne AndermanJuly 7, 2018Permanent collection is always awesome. Exhibits from sculpture to architecture to photography that rotate through always amaze & intrigue. Great films as well. Check schedule online.
Kaisa HernbergJuly 6, 2016Impressive collection, beautiful sculpture garden. All that you can hope for in a museum. The 5th floor cafe is pricey, but the food is very good and the view on the balcony is worth the price.
emeFebruary 21, 2015Got to come here for free as an NYU student (corporate membership). Undoubtedly one of the best NYU perks. Became a regular here and still one of my favorite places to go in the city. Love the store.
Natalia CruzMay 1, 2015Overrated museum and pricy. But the have some pieces that worth for it, you can visit for free the museum courtesy of UNIQLO all Friday from 16:00-20:00 hours/ Puedes visitar gratis los viernes de 4-8
Selen SerdarogluOctober 18, 2015A place that should be given at least 2 days. If you love modern art... Sit in any corner, listen to music, read a book, watch people etc. Breath at MoMa. Don't forget to eat at the Caf茅 2.
Brett FrommeJanuary 30, 2016Best Modern Art collections in the US. The place is vast and you can easily spend the entire day here. The Cafes make it easy to get a meal or just take a break and get a drink.
Ayse D OzturkMay 9, 2017So inspiring! Spending a day here was a dream come true. Picasso, van gogh, matisse, frida kahlo...the collections on the 5th floor absolutely amazing. Don't forget to visit the sculptures garden.
Njoud FahadNovember 30, 2018I love art but this is not an art museum! Full of bazaar ideas they call it 鈥� art鈥�! My advice it to go all the way to the Top floor look at van Gogh and then walk your way down , the shop is a must
Kaylee DarleneJuly 21, 2015Moma is my new favorite museum! It's truly beautiful. I could spent hours just looking at the painting and drinking cold brewed coffee in the cafe
Michael CMarch 18, 2017If you've every studied Art History, much of what you learned is likely in here. Truly impressive. We were proactively approached by helpful staff who wanted to be sure we had a great visit.
Jess KellyJune 15, 2016If Van Gogh means as much to you as he does to me, then it's obviously a must-visit museum. The shop is amazing as well! Make sure you give yourself plenty of time as they do kick you out.
The 5th floor is just overwhelming. All the contemporary masters are here, with top works around every corner. You'll spend the most time here. Come early to avoid the crowds.
LloydMay 11, 20131 of the best museums NYC has to offer! Great collections of past and present artist. You can see some of the rarest art works by Picasso & Monet. Fridays offers free admissions, sponsored by Uniqlo.
Ashley 馃尩August 26, 2014I would suggest getting the city pass... You can save some $ and get most of your other tourist stops as well. My favorite here was the sculpture gardens!
Bubba BrooksJanuary 15, 2018Permanent collection is certainly worth the visit. The temporary 鈥淭hings: Is fashion modern鈥� exhibit was interesting, especially in the current climate of fast fashion. Free coat check is a plus.
Cole KennedyJuly 31, 2015On Uniqlo Free Friday, the line is long but moves quickly. Since the galleries will be packed, it's better as a recon trip to plan a longer visit another day.
AlAnoud A AlGhunaimAugust 24, 2017Picasso, van Gogh, Matisse and Monet under one roof, what more could you ask for? An art lover's heaven on earth馃挃 the original Starry Night is here馃挃
- Joseph K. LeveneNovember 26, 2011Among the Finest Art Collections anywhere. Members of the Museum get invited to every Exhibition before they open, plus, never have wait on line for admission. On Friday Night, MoMA is Free!
SebastianMarch 8, 2013Get there on a Friday at 4pm for free admission. Tickets would sell at 25$ which is a nice discount. You may wait in line for 15 mins but its worth it :-)
Alyssa AndersonJanuary 7, 2016Amazing place to see amazing artists. Make sure to come during the weekday and during work hours if possible, gets very crowded on Fridays and weekends with tourist traffic.
Amazing modern art collection. Unwind for a bit in the sculpture garden or grab a bite to eat at one of its many great dining spots.
Tablet HotelsFebruary 26, 2013The MoMA houses amazing works from renowned artists such as Picasso, Monet, Pollack, and Lichtenstein, as well as frequent thought-provoking exhibits. If you're not into modern art, go for the cafe!
IWalked Audio ToursMay 29, 2013Inside is >150k pieces of art & 22k films. MOMA also aids in film preservation. To-date >50% of movies created prior to 1950 & 90% of silent movies are beyond preservation. Full site history via<LINK> Read more
Nastya ChekryzhovaNovember 9, 2019Not only male abstract in the ideal white cube now. Really proud how institutions recreating and rethinking history of modern art. Thanks for these initiatives!
The best museum to spend the day in boasts unparalleled holdings in 20th- and 21st-century art, the Sette MoMA restaurant, a plush movie theater and the MoMA Design Store.
Justin OrdovezaAugust 28, 2014If you have limited time in New York this is an excellent museum to visit. It has an excellent collection yet it can be seen in under two hours.
Intl m'ship costs 70USD & your friend can get in with 5 dollar ticket. If come as a group of 4 or up, get a membership card and then have 3 guest tickets - cheaper than 4 full fare.
OlinApril 21, 2018A must in NY! Such an impressive collection of well known artists. Only thing I didn鈥檛 like was the sixth floor.. Allow yourself a good half day at least if u want to delve deep in the collection
The Ritz-CarltonOctober 16, 2015Picasso Sculptures at MoMa: Although more famous for his paintings, Picasso was an accomplished self-taught sculptor - which made these works more personal and intimate than anything else he produced.
Eug KApril 4, 2016You can definitely start with this or the Met, depending on your tastes. A lot of cool unconventional staff (I liked Japanese architecture), but grand masterpieces as Van Gogh or Klimt as well.
Zara KhanSeptember 13, 2018The greatest treat was to visit this museum. My Mind is blown. What a collection of art! An absolute must for all modern art lovers.
A L.April 22, 2016MOMA is a great place to visit. The artworks exhibited are amazing. They had a Tim Burton exhibition a few years ago that was awesome. Hopefully they'll have him back in their space again someday.
Spyros KourisJanuary 2, 2019Such an amazing place! Wonderful architecture of the building itself and exciting exhibitions. Especially the 5th floor is a must visit in NYC!
WhiskyAvengerJune 26, 2018I will always love this museum. I saw 鈥楾he Starry Night鈥� by Van Gogh. It was one of the most magical experiences of my life.
Bram BeirensDecember 14, 2021With a party of 4 it is recommended to make one of the visitors a MoMA member, that way you receive an iconic totebag and can visit again in the near future.
Estefania HDecember 23, 2016Although a free entrance on Friday evenings is tempting, I'm not sure I recommend it since it gets super crowded and considering the exhibitions, I'd rather pay and enjoy going around calmly.
Danny BegnocheSeptember 21, 2014The MoMa is an fantastic spot for the group or the traveler riding solo. Found a beautiful spot to read and relax after 6 floors of incredible art.
AnastasiaMay 2, 2014Amazing collection of modern art! The best in the world I think. MOMA and the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid are two must-visit places if you are fond of modern art.
The T5 caf茅 is gone but with its removal comes a great new sorta secret terrace you don鈥檛 even need to buy anything to visit. 5th floor, across from Barr Galleries entrance.
