Our next exhibit will be in the new Gallery Room in the Great hall for the new COSTUME ART exhibit.

COSTUME ART:

The Metropolitan Museum exhibit of COSTUME ART starts May 10th: In this Costume Institute’s spring 2026 exhibition, patrons can explore depictions of the dressed body across The Met’s vast collection, pairing garments with artworks to reveal the inherent relationship between clothing and the body. Costume Art is the inaugural exhibition in the new, nearly 12,000-square-foot Galleries adjacent to the Great Hall.
