We got free entry from our accommodations and it was what you’d expect. The art is amazing, but it is eclipsed by the surrounding NYC. Worth it for free, but probably wouldn’t want to go back and spe… Full review by godoi-dw

Q:
Is it allowed to check luggage at the Brooklyn Museum? We are planning on visiting theee on our last day in NYC, right before heading to LaGuardia Airport. Being able to leave our bags at the coat check (we will each have 1 suitcase with us) would make everything go smoothly.

Grumo, thanks for your response. We did not end up going to the Brooklyn Museum our last day - the time was just too close and we thought we would get to the airport early in case we might take an earlier flight. But all indications we found said that you could bring a suitcase to the Brooklyn Museum and they would let you check it. We may find out next time!

On Saturday July 7, i understand the Bowie exhibit advance tickets are sold out. What time do we need to get there to get walk-up tickets? Will those tickets be for entrance later in the day? Thanks

We went in the week rather than a Saturday and even then we could only book a slot some 2 hours later. We went to other exhibits first then enjoyed the snack bar but there is a classy restaurant too. Get there when it opens but phone first in case all tickets are allocated; it is a very popular exhibition and nearing the end of its run I believe. A superb exhibition worth persevering.

Q:
I’m buying the “standard” ticket for the Bowie exhibit. How flexible is the museum with your scheduled time. If I buy a ticket for 3:00, do I have to get there exactly at 3:00? Thanks
A:
I can only base on my experience. We showed up at the exhibition on time, but waited in a queue for at least 20 min before our passes were scanned and we entered.
Q:
About how long would the average person spend at this exibit?
A:
At least two hours, allow three.
