Great spot! If you’re in Philly, gotta go. it’s pay what you want every Friday 5-9pm and the first Sunday of every month. They have all kinds of art— sculpture and paintings and masonry and so many eras of paintings. My favorite sections are the shaker furniture, american glasswork, the japanese tea house, and the living rooms from the hoi polli of manhattan in the 1900’s.

I’ve been going to this museum ever since I moved to New York. It’s a perfect hidden gem for any history nerds who want a slightly less crowded museum experience on the upper east side. The permanent collection is thorough but not overwhelming and you can get through it in a few hours (I personally hate being in huge museums where I get stressed by the amount of rooms/options). And despite being a history museum, it offers a modern and interactive experience and isn’t dusty!!
