What travelers say:

Located next to Lincoln Center, the museum is dedicated to displaying folk art, including more than 8,000 folk art exhibits from the 18th century to the present, founded in 1961, and opened to the public for free in 1963, the museum is now mainly displaying exhibitions. It also comes with a small museum shop, but the museum's archives, library and studio have been relocated to LIC. When I mentioned the museum, I had to talk about his exhibits. When I looked at the introduction online, I saw that they said that of the more than 8,000 exhibits in their home, 7,000+ of them were given by gift. Although the space in the museum is not large, it is relatively close to other large museums around. It will look a lot smaller. But the exquisiteness and size of the exhibits are still very worthy of praise, and the museum's exhibits are not only some famous authors, but also displays the works of some relatively "obscured" artists. The museum also holds some theme-rich special exhibitions every year.
