Description


MoMA's collection spans modern and contemporary art, film series, performances, and architectural exhibitions. Visitors often come for the chance to see Van Gogh's Starry Night and Monet's Water Lilies up close, and the outdoor sculpture garden offers a quiet spot to sit in Midtown. The building is bright and spacious, easy to wander even when busy. One visitor noted that while they didn't understand much of the work, their child enjoyed seeing pieces first learned about in school. The on-site restaurant earned praise, and the museum's location makes it convenient to explore Midtown afterward.
