If You're Not an Art Lover, MoMa Will Make You One
I really enjoyed the Museum of Modern Art and found the size to be much more manageable than the Met, as far as fitting in several attractions in one day. I was able to cover a lot of ground in just an hour, but like most art museums, when I left I still felt like I could have spent more time.
I like the way MoMa is set up, and even when the museum is closed on Tuesdays, you can go inside the store and the main entrance, which also has displays of art up. It’s very affordable for what you get out of the experience, and I think it’s the best art museum in NYC for families and schools because children under 16 get free admission. It’s amazing to me that so many of the NYC museums have such reasonable rates, and that many of them actually do offer free admission, or ticket price by donation.
I’m a fan of modern art, and I love very colorful and abstract paintings and really contemporary art, which there is a lot of here, but I think all kinds of art fans will find something to appreciate at MoMa. Outside the museum there are large billboards along the side of the building that are created as blown-up letters by elementary aged children about what they like best about MoMa. It focuses on children and art appreciation throughout, which I really liked.
