There are also several special exhibitions on view at any one time and the short documentary Timescapes, a multimedia historical storytelling, bringing viewers on a 28 minute journey through 400 years of history.

Great little museum! The exhibits are all very informative and well done. We'll worth the price of admission. We were even able to get a free guided tour by one of the museum employees. Will be going back on our next trip to finish the exhibits we didn't get to see.

After several trips to New York, it all finally made sense about unique evolution of this state. Very informative and friendly, professional, and well kept up.

I was very interested in the exhibition on the 3rd floor. The information of senses was visualized even in an artistic way, which was amazing. There are 3 floors and I spent there for 4 hours as it was too interesting to leave within a couple of hours. The cafe was also good. It was definitely needed and the sandwich was light, healthy and delicious.
