In the museum
How long does a visit to Nxt Museum take?
Most visitors spent about 1 to 1 1/2 hours in the exhibition. We recommend that you take as much time as you’d like with each artwork. Try to get lost and return to the room that you liked best. Stay as long as you wish, up until we close!
Can I take pictures during my visit?
Feel free to capture your visit with your phone. Professional photography gear (cameras with changeable lenses) and accessories (tripods, flash, etc) are only allowed with permission of the Nxt team. Please email info@nxtmuseum.com with the gear you want to bring and what you want to use the material for.
Can I use a locker at Nxt Museum?
Lockers at Nxt Museum are free of charge. Coats and small bags are allowed in the museum, but we ask that you store large bags and backpacks if you bring them. We do not have space to store large suitcases or other luggage.
