I had come to see the Studio 54 exhibition which I wanted to see for a second time and it had closed in early November. I was really bummed since the exhibition had been closed for four months because of the COVID closures of the museums in NYC. It was a great exhibition that I had not fully seen.

I spent more time on the subway than I did at the museum! I will not visit again, but you may like it if you’re into art, just know what to expect. …

This is a beautifully appointed museum. So well done. Close to trains and plenty of restaurants nearby. When I was there, they had a fashion display that was fantastic! Also photo display that was also amazing and well done.
