Insider Insight
If you’re visiting during the summer, don’t miss the annual ArtCrush Gala, a glamorous event that draws art enthusiasts, collectors, and celebrities from around the world. It’s an extraordinary evening of art auctions, live music, and celebrations benefiting the museum’s programs. For a quieter experience, stop by mid-week to enjoy the exhibitions with fewer crowds and take in the rooftop views during a relaxed lunch. Pro tip: The rooftop café offers incredible desserts that pair beautifully with the scenic mountain backdrop—an indulgence as memorable as the art itself.
