What you'll do
Head to the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD) in the heart of Columbus Circle to discover New York culture at its contemporary best.
Step inside this striking building at the southwest corner of Central Park and feast your eyes on the latest in contemporary art and design.
Exhibitions across MAD’s four floors change frequently and include just about every form of art and design you can imagine. Furniture, ceramics, jewelry, clothing, sculpture, film, sound and performance… this place has it all. You’ll find everything from the classic to the outlandish here.
Previous exhibitions at MAD have celebrated Vera Neumann’s bold and colorful textile prints and British artist Brian Clarke’s stained glass. MAD has also hosted a retrospective of Beth Lipman’s complex glass structures.
On the top floor, stylish restaurant Robert has floor-to-ceiling windows with sweeping views over Central Park – pop in for lunch and a cocktail. The shop sells a range of fine jewelry, crafts and sculptures, as well as smart MAD merchandise including mugs, fridge magnets and totes.
