Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)
Interested in art? The MoMA is now showing "Starry Night" from Vincent Van Gogh and "The Scream" by Edvard Munch, which are two very famous paintings that even those who aren't as interested in art know about. I happened to go when we had the week off and they we're fantastic! The MoMA has photography, the impressionist area, and of course, all modern sculptures and paintings, along with so much more. As a SUNY student, we get free admission, but prices for regular students are $14 and regular admission is $25. The MoMA's address is 11W 53rd Street, between 5th and 6th Ave.
