It was a bit small and eccentric for the ticket price on this occasion for me.

Lovely museum. I loved seeing all the amazing Tiffany lamps on display. We also loved the President display and Bob Hope/Mrs Maisel exhibits. Great Covid practices in place at this museum.

First time here! It was a great experience. We saw the Tiffany lamps exhibit, which was mind-blowing, the number of lamps and other Tiffany items on display. I loved the “Design your own Tiffany lamp” interactive; I could have played with that for an hour. The “Safe Haven “ Cherry Grove in the 1950s photo exhibit (through Oct. 2021) was nicely done, and being outdoors at a separate entrance to the garden on 78th St., this was actually Free. So if you’re in the neighborhood or at Central Park or Museum of Natural History, be sure to stop by and see that one. Other exhibits we saw were Katherine Graham, and the presidents hall. No time to see the others, but will probably visit again soon.

I had a blast here. The Tiffany lamps and 5 borough art was amazing. I cant wait for the other exhibits to open up. Groupon has a deal for 20 dollars and it is definitely worth it. All the artwork i seen in here, I have never seen before. This is my newest favorite place in the city and I can not wait to come back.
