As a VX Volunteer at the Met, I helped improve guests' experience at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, one question at a time.

Nearest bathroom? Where is the Mona Lisa? Is the rooftop open? Is there a water fountain? Why hasn't the Koch name been taken off the museum yet? I only have an hour here, what should I go see? Where did they shoot "Ocean's 8"? I lost my friend and I don't have service; is there a public phone I can use? How do I get out of here? Where is the place from the movie "When Harry Met Sally?" Where is the bathroom? We want to get a cup of coffee, is there a café here? My friend is in this room [shows picture of 18th c. painting on phone], how do I get there? Is the cafeteria still closed? I need to get to the gift shop. Now. Where's Starry Night? Can I get a free ticket if my aunt's brother works at the Field Museum in Chicago? I got a sitter today so I could take the Islamic art tour and it's not even happening; I'd like a refund. Can you give me directions back to my hotel? Closest bathroom, please?
