Entrance of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York
Despite liking to see beautiful objects and things, I was never a fan of art museums. Probably because a lot of the art museums I have been to leaned more towards modern art. While modern art has its place, I still struggle to “get” a lot of them. The Metropolitan Museum of Art focuses more on the tradition types of art. New York has a separate museum of modern art although, it has a small section on modern art itself. There were a lot of people outside the museum so I was wondering if there were too many people inside. The building is a massive building with countless galleries. If the American Natural History Museum was any indication, I think I’m in for another long walk.
Going to One of the Wings of the Metropolitan Museum of Art
Like most museums in New York, entrance to the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art is free for an optional donation. I would love to go in for free but I also think that it would be good to make a donation for the continued operation of the museum. A lot of visitors also make donations upon entry into the museum. I’m very sure that the exhibits are of very high quality so donations here would go a long way. There were several wings here in the museum and I just randomly chose one wing to start in. Hopefully, the crowd near the entrance will thin out the further in I go.
