A few galleries were closed off for installation or repairs. Mostly paintings/2d artwork on display. Good group of contemporary to modern works, with a mixture of well known artists and some lesser. Staff was friendly and helpful. Great spot to stop in if in the area and an art junkie. Took me about 2 hours casually + gift shop.

Beautiful exhibits and art from so many different eras and artists, I loved it here! People under 21 are free, but prices for other museum-goers are steep.

Experience classics like Renoir, Wyeth, Reynolds, Cassatt, along with Native people's artwork , and modern art. Spacious and able to handle a crowd. Free lockers and coat room along with strollers and wheelchairs

Pleasantly surprised by this local art museum. The pieces featured included works by Picasso, Matisse, Renoir, and Monet. A gorgeous interior welcomes you on the journey throughout this lovely place. Price of admission is well worth the experience.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
