Ackland Art Museum

This little art museum is actually a lot bigger than I thought it would be! It has some great permanent installations and a really wonderful changing installation at the moment. They also sometimes showcase art from students at UNC, and it’s great to see what the students are putting out

A nice art museum, with a variety of exhibits. Just a short walk from TOPO. Admission was free. The upstairs was closed. We were told it's only open during the school year.

I went last weekend and it was super fun! Lots of fascinating artifacts, but I was super intrigued by the sunset exhibit!! Sadly the gallery was closed, so we didn't get the full experience. Staff were sooo friendly!! I would definitely love to return.

One of the best art museums I've ever been to, a great find while I was staying in Chapel Hill. There was a really great variety of art, with lots of really interesting Asian and African art. There was a really great collection, I was very very impressed. Plus, its super interesting that the founder originally donated his collection to be displayed at Duke, but they wouldn't let him be buried in the museum, so he moved it to UNC!
