About
The Brooklyn Museum houses one of the largest and most encyclopedic art collections in the Americas inside a Beaux-Arts McKim, Mead & White landmark, offering everything from ancient Egyptian art to contemporary American works without asking you to cross a bridge.
McKim, Mead & White's 1893 Beaux-Arts landmark anchors Eastern Parkway with one of the country's deepest Egyptian collections and a contemporary program that has consistently outflanked larger Manhattan institutions.
