Following a multiyear renovation, The Met’s collections of the arts of Africa, the ancient Americas, and Oceania, returned in May 2025 in a reimagined Michael C. Rockefeller Wing.

Designed by WHY Architecture in collaboration with Beyer Blinder Belle Architects, and with The Met’s Design Department, the reimagined galleries have been designed to transform the visitor experience and incorporate innovative technologies that allow The Met to display objects in new ways.

Please note: this tour is accessible by wheelchair.

Architects: WHY Architecture; Beyer Blinder Belle Architects
