I suggest visiting on a Thursday or Friday evening. They have extended hours, and it was way less crowded, which made it easier to really enjoy the art!
Try to plan around lunchtime. The museum’s café has some pretty good options, but it gets super busy. If you can, grab a snack before noon to beat the rush.
My advice is to give yourself at least three hours. There’s so much to see – I ended up rushing through the last galleries because I didn't plan enough time.
