Small gallery, but generally interesting art. Usually only a few artists up at a time so easy to learn about them. Also admission is free. Folk/ethnic music concerts on most Fridays is also free.
This small museum is perfect to visit in an afternoon. The exhibits and the gift shop are wonderful. As the name implies, the works are handmade. Free music on Wednesday and Friday afternoons.
My favorite NYC museum because I am enthralled with outsider art and artists. Great exhibits, friendly staff, fun gift shop and free music on Fridays! Love this little gem.
Nice place when they have a good exhibit (at the time of writing this they have an amazing one on military quilts- 5 stars!). Can't beat free admission. Nice storage lockers. Wonderful gift shop. I only wish it were more family (young kids) friendly.
The Museum is a small gem that always surprises! The Ronald Lockett retrospective, Fever Within, was totally moving! His biography so tragic to have died so young is reflected in some of the work but so is his compassion. You really feel the raw emotion of his work in the subject matter he chose. The companion exhibition that the Folk Art Museum put together using one of Lockett's most compelling works ONCE SOMETHING HAS LIVED IT CAN NEVER REALLY DIE was thought provoking and wonderful and a dramatic way to utilize works from the collection that related to this powerful theme. Additionally they have the best museum shop in New York!
