Tilt Museum: An optical illusion museum in New York

What is the Tilt Museum?

• The Tilt Museum is a museum in the New York suburbs dedicated entirely to optical illusions. The installations were created by Tracy Lee Stum, an artist specializing in 3D street art. One of her creations was even featured in the Guinness Book of World Records in 2006.
• The museum is not located in central New York but in the American Dream shopping mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The mall is easily accessible from New York, and you can even book a shuttle in advance through our page dedicated to the American Dream Outlet.
• The Tilt Museum is part of a new generation of museums designed for Instagram. It’s primarily a fun experience meant to be shared on social media afterward.
