The Museum of Arts and Design is in the midst of their ‘Wear It or Not‘ exhibition, showcasing unique and elaborate jewelry from mid 20th century from around the world. With almost 130 works on display, plan to spend a good hour opening drawers full of delightful treasures of necklaces, brooches, earrings, etc…
The Museum of Arts and Design is located at 2 Columbus Circle in Midtown Manhattan on the south side of the circle. You can’t miss the building.
