Serena ZampolliSeptember 2, 2015Small museum but something not to be missed for those who are interested in American art and history
There's a fantastic exhibition of quilts on view now from contemporary artists and also traditional quilts. Textile lovers, don't miss it!
Teachers College Student AffairsJuly 1, 2013Visit on a Friday evening and attend the museum's 'Free Music Fridays.' From 5:30 to 7:30 pm you can have a drink in the cafe while enjoying amazing live folk music in the stunning atrium.
- Small but with some lovely exhibitions. Free music most Fridays as well.
- Very unusual quilt exhibition on view. Really worth the visit. Open late, and free!

Alexander KostSeptember 29, 2017Very exciting and rare exhibitions you wouldn't find in a "regular" museum. Admission is free, donations are welcome
Summer BurtonJune 2, 2013It's cool but pretty tiny -- check to see if the current exhibition is something that interests you, since their permanent collection isn't on display.- Nina DNovember 16, 2010You have to stop in. Admission is based on donation for a really small gallery. Really cool gift shop!

"In the summer time, grab some gelato from a nearby vendor and walk around the plaza. Be sure to snap a photo at the fountain and walk around to experience the finest cultural center in NYC."
