One of the most important icons of New York. His art exhibition is very well categorized. The staff is very friendly and helps you with any questions.

In this museum you can find a wide variety of artistic works, among which are emblematic paintings such as The Starry Night or The Persistence of Memory. Definitely a place that can overwhelm you with emotions with each new visit.

In my opinion, if you are visiting New York and you are passionate about art, you cannot miss this museum.

Another very NYC icon! I went during the week at Noon. They did a great job of making sure they checked your temperature, wearing appropriate masks and provided sanitizer. It was very quiet but I noticed it started to get busy in the afternoon. There is nowhere to eat inside. Maybe why people were not there at that time. This is a wonderful museum for modern art! Tons of artwork to enjoy! I highly recommend this place when visiting or for locals!

We've always loved this museum; it is quite possibly my favorite museum. The new MoMA is wonderful. With the timed entry and diminished capacity, it actually added to the experience. The rooms felt open and empty so I could enjoy the art (I only had to wait for one couple before seeing Starry Night, which usually had a crowd 6 deep huddled before it! ) I also appreciated all the new art from their collection, many works I had never seen before. And the greater representation of female and minority artists was also very appreciated as it provided different viewpoints and insights to the art world than I had previously been exposed to.
Finally, for me, one of the highlights was the audio feature on their website. There was no need to rent a listening device as you could use your own cell phone. And the short commentary for many of the works of art added wonderful insight, often from the artists themselves, their relatives, or their contemporaries. This special touch truly brought so much of the art to life!

It was great being able to visit a museum during such a strange year. I was fortunate enough to snag some of the free tickets that were being offered for Fridays in September. I had no idea there were Picassos on display! So much beauty to observe. I hope I get to visit again soon

This museum is beautiful. I visited for my graduation instead of going to the ceremony and it was a great decision. It was honestly a surreal experience being surrounded by such amazing and authentic works of art and so many people who also love art. I spent a long while meandering around and looking at art. I was elated to see the Monet's enormous "Water Lilies" in person.
I highly recommend this museum, but it is very crowded. If you want to take pictures of works you like, you will have to be patient with other patrons to get the shot you want.

Great place, art is absolutely beautiful, my only comment is if they had more hands on activities for kids and adults. Maybe i missed it because its huge but from what i saw they only have a very small area to sit and draw. Staff very nice and professional, very helpful. Beautiful place to go alone or if u know someone special to you loves art!

Superb! I stopped to ask a couple of ladies (who I believe were volunteers) about a particular artist whose work I wanted to see. They were very knowledgeable and friendly. They were both wearing VERY funky glasses.
Wonderful art - around every corner I was pleasantly surprised to find original artworks which I recognised only from reproductions.
The audio guide was good, although I thought it was aimed at a demographic with quite a low reading age.

Great museum to visit with family. Nice and helpful staff and volunteers. There is a wide variety of art types in this museum. It was bit crowded when we went there but it was still a good experience looking at multiple art forms throughout the museum. The kids had lot of fun as well. I would say it is a great place to take your kids unless they are too young. I would recommend plan to visit this museum when it is not raining.

So first of all, it’s a very nice museum! I don’t recommend coming on Friday afternoon/evening. That’s when the admission is for free and it’s way too crowded. Besides, you’ll have to queue up for up to 2 hours if you want to enter for free. Just pay the $14 if you are a student and you won’t have to wait at all! The museum itself is nice, it’s easy to navigate. The art: well it’s art. Not quite my thing but some of the pictures were really nice and quite famous and it was cool seeing them. There are descriptions and explanations as well. It’s barrier free and also a good place to bring kids (I saw a lot of kids!!). The garden plaza is a nice place to hang out! If you’re in town for only a short amount of time I don’t recommend on going! It takes too much time!

of course a wonderful place. my favorite spot is the sculpture garden in the morning when there are only a few people and you can relax over coffee and enjoy the experience. however I recently made the mistake of dropping by at lunch time and it was wall to wall people. my advice -- after twelve stay inside and reliable the exhibits

Very big, interesting exhibitions of a combination of both modern and contemporary art. Good place for people watching. 2 cafes, fine dining, pretty presentation. There's dedicated rest area in most floors. The museum itself is a piece of art. The terrace garden is a gem.

Some of the art work is very well known stuff, some not so much. It's modern art so beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some of the metal sculptures were made from signs and farm implements, these looked like something an Iowa tornado had sucked up and spit out. They also had bubbling mud and a room with loud noises and videos. Again, eye of the beholder.

Very impressive. I actually enjoyed the Met more for its modern art works. We ate a restaurant called Modern that's inside the Moma. It was very high end. Check it out if you don't mind it being pricey.

Very big. Even with a small interest in art this place is very nice. I'm generally not really interested in art but thanks to the free audio tour(you will need to turn in your ID/driver's license paired with your email) i could here the thoughts and reasons behind most artistic pieces. Quite a few different collections, so they will most likely have something in their arsenal you will enjoy!

Free on Friday afternoons. Decent amount of art available to see, artists from all over the World like Picasso and Van Gogh and a lot others! Can be a bit crowded so you need to be patient. The building is also interesting and it has a nice garden to rest in a warm afternoon.

My wife and I loved the MoMA, she had been there before but it was my first time outside of seeing images and reading descriptions of it. Honestly it is a sight to see and definitely opened me up to the experiences of artists I had never heard of. Of course we did the obvious and saw the major pieces like Starry Night and The Persistence of Memory; Also I came across a chair that I thought would be original to describe as the dildo equivalent to the throne from Game of Thrones but like a pleasant surprise the description next to the chair confirmed my joke as real.

I had an amazing time and I think its definitely one of those things you need to devote the majority of a day to truly absorb it all.

A great place to spend a few hours. Some really magnificent modern art. Such a diverse range of exhibits. Adult entry is $25 and feels fair (plus the cloakroom is free which was a pleasant surprise). I also visited the cafe as a break during my visit and the coffee that they served was really good. I was there on a weekday and the crowds were really not too bad (though a seemingly constant crowd around Van Gogh Starry Night is an expected exception). I will certainly visit again in the future though, and have no hesitation in giving this 5 stars.

By it's name alone, one should expect MODERN art, which might not be everyone's "thing," so you should go there with an open mind knowing that you are about to see things that are different, thought provoking, unique and possibly even confusing or that push the boundaries on what art actually is. The pieces here are all well curated and expertly presented with the opportunity to rent an audio guide that will help explain what you are seeing and who the artists are. If you don't like to wait on line, it is best not to come with a backpack (they will make you check it, and that line can be pretty awful) and take the escalator over the stairs. Start from the top floor, work your way down, and expect crowds (especially during high tourist seasons and around more famous pieces).

The facility was great. Enjoyed the art pieces. However the people working there are horrible. The coat check lady directing traffic was the worst. Not the woman behind the counter, the one out in front of the counters. Also, do not try to carry a purse or a bag into the exhibits. You will be forced to check your items even though their policy allows small bags. When you ask they will simply respond "Free coat and bag check". Then you ask again and they just bark "Free coat and bag check". Customer service is a black eye on this museum.
