The main building of The Metropolitan Museum of Art – located at Fifth Avenue and 82nd Street in Manhattan – will be open to the public from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on the following Met Holiday Mondays in summer and fall of 2007:
July 2 (Independence Day Holiday)

As part of the special Holiday Monday program – in which the Museum is open to the public on selected Mondays throughout the year – family greeters wearing red aprons in the Museum's Great Hall are available to direct visitors to areas of particular interest. A schedule of family activities planned for each Holiday Monday is available on the Museum's Web site (www.metmuseum.org).
A different selection of galleries and exhibitions is open on each Holiday
Monday, along with several of the Museum's cafes and gift shops.
Met Holiday Mondays are sponsored by Bloomberg.
