The building is huge, but the collection is not so big. There is an enormous hall in the middle of the museum, and it has no art works. You can find Asian, African. Muslim, Egyptian, Assyrian, and. …Full review by 649001

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

Hi there, the tickets we had were advance and in strict entrance time. We got there early to try and get in and had to wait til our allotted time. It looks like the even might be full, my friend. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was. Try ringing the box office before just turning up. Good luck. It was awesome.

A:
I would call the museum for current information. Probably get there as early as possible.
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:
Flexible we had 1:00 tickets and got there at 1:30 and they let us in, so don’t worry about it.
