There lies a plethora amount of art institutions spread throughout the streets and corners of New York City. Any individual attempting to visit every museum or art gallery, would need to spend a great deal of time in the city. However, there is one specific avenue that inhabits a handful of the top acclaimed museums in the city, and that lies on 5^th Ave, specifically between 82^nd St and 105^th St. This strip of the city is known to some as the Museum Mile, recognized for its display of culture, including its museums and statues of historic figures.

Jeffrey Chang, from Florida, came to visit New York City, and decided to spend a day walking through the Museum Mile, and visiting the museums along 5^th Avenue.
The following lists the museums that lies on Museum Mile (walking downtown):

1. El Museo Del Barrio (1230 5^th Ave) Suggested Admission
2. Museum of the City of New York (1220 5^th Ave) Suggested Admission
3. The Jewish Museum (1109 5^th Ave) $15 Adult Admission
4. Cooper Hewitt, National Design Museum (2 East 91^st St 5^th Ave) $16 Adult Admission
5. Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (1071 5^th Ave) $25 Adult Admission
6. Neue Galerie New York (1048 5^th Ave) $20 General Admission
7. The Metropolitan Museum of Art (1000 5^th Ave) Suggested Admission

“This Museum Mile is definitely the place to go for anyone that wants to jam-pack their day with art and culture. The walk down 5^th Ave was pleasant, the museums are spaced out evenly enough, and the view of central park really just made the entire day better. It’s the perfect place to go either alone or with friends, and soak in the art culture of this city.” Jeffrey Chang

For all avid museum-goers, there is the Museum Mile Festival, an event on June 13^th, 2017 from 6-9PM; admission to all the museums listed above will be free of charge and you’ll be given the opportunity to surround yourself with hundreds of fellow museum lovers!
