Choose your time
The museum is open every day from 10:00 to 18:00, and until 20:00 on Thursdays; it closes on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Sunday mornings from 10:00 to 12:00 are quiet hours, with no public tours.
Arrive ready for security
Expect bag checks, wands and metal detectors at the entrance. If you have a reduced ticket, bring ID: it is checked at admission.
Photos without flash
Personal photos are welcome on the first floor, in the gardens and in the permanent collection galleries, but flash, video lights, selfie sticks, monopods and tripods are not; rules in special exhibitions vary.
