NYC Weekend Ideas | Art Museum: MoMa 🖼️

Musuems are one of my personal favorite weekend past times and I love New York for having all the best exhibitions year round. MoMa can get super crowded on the weekends (goodluck seeing Van Gogh's Starry Night without 20 heads in front of you) but if you're ok with just a quick glimpse of it, there are plenty more to see especially with the new annex now open.

The Museum of Modern Art

11 W 53rd St, New York, NY 10019

🖼 Closest subway station is 5 Avenue-53 St Station via E or M trains

🖼 Museum entry is $25 for adults, $14 for students (bring your ID), and free for NYC residents every first Friday of the month from 4PM onwards. Grab a museum guide to get acquainted with the spaces.

🖼 If you're pressed for time, plan to spend at least 2 hours here to see the exhibits and the other space which has a beautiful fountain and some sculptures

🖼 Don't miss these iconic pieces while you're there: Starry Night by Van Gogh, The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dalí, Water Lilies by Claude Monet, and Dutch Interior by Joan Miró.

MoMa, officially known as The Museum of Modern Art, is a must-visit for art enthusiasts. Located at 11 W 53rd St, New York, NY, this iconic museum houses a vast collection of modern and contemporary art, including masterpieces by renowned artists such as Salvador Dalí and Claude Monet. While planning your visit, it's essential to note that the museum can get quite busy, especially on weekends. To avoid crowds, consider visiting during off-peak hours. The museum offers discounted entry for students and free admission for NYC residents on the first Friday of each month from 4 PM onwards. Don't forget to grab a museum guide at the entrance to help navigate the various galleries and exhibitions. For those short on time, a minimum of two hours is recommended to explore the highlights. Must-see pieces include Van Gogh's Starry Night, a true gem of the collection, alongside The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dalí and Water Lilies by Claude Monet. If you wish to explore beyond MoMa, remember there’s also MoMa PS1 located in Queens—another fantastic option for art lovers. Getting to MoMa is easy with public transport; the closest subway station is 5 Avenue-53 St Station, accessible via the E or M trains. Make the most of your NYC weekend by immersing yourself in the vibrant art scene that MoMa has to offer.
