The Met: "My Met" Interactive Experience

The first time you step into the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the feeling is often the same: awe. With thousands of artworks and little guidance, many visitors don’t know where to begin. They move through galleries seeing incredible pieces, but often without the context needed to create a meaningful connection.

​​

My Met was designed around the belief that people don’t dislike museums, they just need a clearer entry point into the art. Through a personalized digital guide, visitors receive curated pathways, navigation, and stories that transform overwhelming choices into moments of curiosity and discovery.

Through the "My Met" app, visitors receive personalized pathways, navigation, and stories based on a curation quiz that transform overwhelming choices into moments of curiosity and discovery. The experience extends beyond a mobile device through physical interactions, and a personalized printed keepsake that allows visitors to carry their experience with them.

By blending digital and physical touch points, My Met shifts the museum experience from simply viewing art to creating a personal connection with it.
