9/11 Memorial Museum ($26), the Guggenheim Museum ($25), the Museum of Modern Art ($25), the Whitney Museum of American Art ($25), the American Museum of Natural History ($22 or pay-what-you-wish for NY, NJ and Conn. residents), the Brooklyn Museum ($16) and the Jewish Museum ($15). Up until 2018, the Met’s pay-what-you-wish policy extended to visitors from around the globe, the last museum in the world to have such broad guidelines.
In March of that year, the policy changed to apply only to state residents and students in the tri-state area.Despite not needing to pay the hefty new admission fee, some locals are still annoyed about it. Ericson Contreras, a 19-year-old student from Harlem visiting the museum earlier in the week, called the new pricing “absurd” and said he’s been disappointed about the limited diversity in the museum’s collection.
“I’m personally Afro-Hispanic,” he said. “It [makes] me mad.”Tourists visiting the museum had mixed emotions about the increase.Luke Fouche, a 29-year-old contract manager in town from South Africa, said he’d gladly pay the $30.
“I’m not a big art fan, but for me to come and see so much art in one place is an experience,” he said. “Plus I think I’m obligated to have a hot dog on the steps because it’s a big thing.” “For what you get to see, it’s worth $30,” said Melissa Calasso, a 38-year-old stay-at-home mom from Germany.Grace Miller, a 23-year-old visiting from Wisconsin, was less enthused.“It’s funny because the last time I was here, that was the first time they started charging,” said Miller, referencing the 2018 change.
