My love for the Metropolitan Museum of Art is really huge. I have been going to this museum since I was little, and it seems surreal that I now attend press events here for the blog! I think taking children to museums when they are young, is a great way to introduce them to art right from the beginning. I feel the best part of the Met is there are so many different exhibits, it is easy to find something where everyone has an interest. I thought I would show you today some of the gorgeous furniture displayed at the Met. I was taken away by them while visiting recently, and felt you would really enjoy to see as well.
Sorry for the blurr on this one but it was one of my favorites and I had to show you
The gold detail was gorgeous and the painting was just so lovely as well
The recommended fees below are just that, if you can only afford $10, they will accept that to visit the museum. They are one of the few that do this on a daily basis which I think is wonderful. Please try to pay the full if you can as it helps maintain the museum and bring new exhibits for everyone to enjoy.
