    "Visited here on a Wednesday and because it’s such a large building it didn’t seem crowded, but there was a line for the coat and bag check which is a nice feature. You can look, watch, observe and even touch some art pieces, without having to carry your coat and maybe bags if you’ve been shopping already. I learned that art really is in the eye of the beholder and can be in many forms. ANYTHING can be art! I started at the top on the 6th floor and worked my way down. They do have elevators for accessibility and they have a cafe that serves food and beverages. I didn’t eat there, I was overwhelmed by the art. They tell you only pictures, no fancy cameras and no videos. I spent well over 3 hours here just looking and reading about artist and their works. Some things I walked right by, others caught my eye. Some artists encourage you to be a part of their art others are hands off. Some warn you that you might be misted with water. Oh and some tickets give you admission to other sights to see in the city or a discount to see other sights."

    "Museum of Modern Art was an absolutely amazing experience. The museum is super clean, very well organized, and the staff was incredibly helpful and kind. There is so much to see — you can easily spend hours there and still feel inspired. The only downside was the cafeteria situation. There is only food service on the second floor, and both cafeterias had very long lines. Since the museum is huge, it would be great to have vending machines with water and beverages on each floor. Overall, a wonderful experience and definitely worth visiting. I would happily come back again."
