This is a truly exceptional museum with amazing works of art. If you go on Sunday, the nearby parking is free. Also, the entrance fee is a voluntary donation. Plus, the staff make you feel very welcome and are happy to share their wealth of knowledge about the art, artists, and the museum.

Our family had a very relaxing, and beautiful experience here. The museum is as beautiful, and clean as it was when i visited as a child. There is so much beautiful art and architecture to look at. We came for a classical concert on a Sunday. Highly recommend if you are in Sacramento.

This museum is enormous and has an equally large and diverse collection on display. Every room is engaging, and you can tell the museum staff and curators pit in effort. Seriously worth a visit by anyone; even those not interested in art will find it rewarding.

COVID precautions require purchasing timed tickets. Sold at 15 minute entry intervals, I purchased mine right before I left my house. Beautiful expansion building is attached to the original Crocker mansion. Exhibits were well laid out and easy to navigate. Loved the bright open areas and the eclectic mix of Mexican, African and Asian art. Spent 3 hours here and easily could have made it a full day to take it all in. Gift shop is small but reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit!

How long does it take to see the museum

Kelvin Archila | Aug 27, 2019
Eirasema Weaver | Aug 27, 2019

It can take 2.50 hours if you want to see it all and learn the history but if you are short in time you can see it in a hour and half. I do highly recommend seeing the Leigh Stanford masion.

If you're up for donating art you can set up a meeting with one of the curators, or maybe see if you can have some of your work in the art auction(s). Either way the best information would come from contacting the museum directly

Avalon Quinn | Aug 27, 2019

The Crocker loves photography! With some exceptions, personal photography of artwork in the Museum’s permanent collection is allowed; however, flash, tripods, or video equipment is not permitted without permission from our Marketing Department. Due to the sensitive nature of the art, photography of works on paper is not permitted. Photography of special exhibits or loaned works of art is sometimes not allowed due to copyright restrictions. In those instances, posted signs will let you know that photography is not allowed. It is best to ask a security officer or visitors services representative at the admission desk about which works may be photographed. Professional photographers or those with professional equipment such as tripods, flash, and lights must receive approval prior to photography in or around the Crocker Art Museum, and must be accompanied by a member of the Museum staff.

The schools have given out free passes. Kids came home saying that there are lots of fun activities for them there. Is this true? I have searched and don't see anything with that info.

Jessica Milligan | Aug 27, 2018

There is a children's section on the first floor in the newer part of the museum. I did see some kids in a room painting although my belief is that's a class. There is a Hands-On area for the kids age range 3-8. It's a cool place to go although it will not hold a child's attention for a prolonged period of time. Nice park directly across from it.
