Love this museum! First Saturdays is fun but come any other time and you feel like you have the whole museum to yourself.
Jenny CrowleyJuly 30, 2016Stop in even if you don't have much time. Hit up the gift shop and the lobby for free exhibits.
Diverse selection of art with many works of art by artists of color
AbNovember 28, 2015Hope they get funding/ambition to expand this place. The building is beautiful, but some of the exhibits feel hand-me-down
Grace ClarkeJanuary 20, 2014Eric Adams inauguration as the first Black Boro President in Brooklyn - excellent venue- great security detail.
Jon RossFebruary 17, 2013The 5th floor featuring art from Northern, Central and Southern America was worth the (suggested) price alone.
Gabriel HayesJanuary 25, 2016Really cool that they did free admission for those who could make it during the Blizzard Jonas
Dawn :o) DamnYourNosey!July 31, 2012One of my favorite museums. Check out the Egyptian exhibit and the Rodan collection. :0)
B. Andrea DSeptember 9, 2014I love working out in the front of the building. No matter how much I complain about it. #plyometrics
It's huge inside with 5 floors. Has lots of good stuff. Much less crowded than MET.

Chris RevelleSeptember 18, 2017Love the thoughtfulness of the exhibitions here. Always great work and reflection.
mang roiszJuly 12, 2010One of the most beautiful museums in New York. Most people stick to the city for their art but you must come to Brooklyn and see this one!!! Brilliant!

The new Basquiat painting is a stunning exhibit. First stop on a world tour.

EchoDAJanuary 24, 2012Just off Prospect Park, the Museum offers a broad view on art and arts from all over the World. Great temporary exhibits.
Chris R (thechristophe)December 23, 2017Decent museum with some good collections and nice architecture. They could use the space better however.
HUGO BOSSNovember 3, 2010The Met's cross-river rival sports a feminist-art center, and is currently showing work by contemporary artists Fred Tomaselli and Sam Taylor-Wood. (via ARTINFO)
Design*SpongeMarch 28, 2011If you're visiting over the weekend, the first Saturday of each month is free. Great chance to check out art in a beautiful location.
Jeffrey EastonApril 13, 2013The Brooklyn Museum has the second largest permanent collection in the US - second only to the Met- restrooms and atm behind the coffee bar near the entrance
Madm FiaNovember 25, 2014This place seems small but there are so many nooks and crannies from old to very modern shoes and high fashion.
Jude GiaramitaAugust 2, 2015Not too thrilled about the $15 park fee. Lived in Park Slope when I was a girl and never went to this park. Long overdue, the exhibits were interesting but the air conditioning was spotty.
Frank CaronJanuary 8, 2013Beware the door to the cafe, which is not as tricky to open in the proper direction as it seems. Remember: a horizontal bar = push foward!
