Museums are meant to preserve the legacy of humanity. Serving to enrich people and provide an experience that enlightens people for generations. And I truly feel like the Cincinnati Art Museum has enriched my life having experienced it. This museum features a wide variety of over 67,000 works and I made it a goal to focus and observe every piece I possibly could. It took me all of 5 hours to get through the entire collection, and I didn't have time to fully appreciate every single piece. But, needless to say, this place was truly mind-opening for me. Just looking at the time-span of over 6,000 years from which the art has come from is awe-inspiring. Also, I can't forget that the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The museum was very clean and I can tell they have been taking immaculate care of the building.

Visiting the art museum is always a great indoor and outdoor activity. We park at the bottom of the art climb to enjoy the walk up and to see some amazing sculptures. Plus you'll get in some added exercise. The art room is so fun to play in and my kids love making the crafts along with the take home crafts.

Great museum. Polite staff and interesting artwork. I love their changing exhibits. It's always a fun time going here. I've been almost a dozen times in my life. They have a great program for children to get involved in making art work. I can't wait to stop by again. It's a great place to go no matter the weather. Very reliable hours

This is the coolest art museum I’ve been to in a while. The best part about it, it’s completely free! They have so many different pieces and time periods to browse through. This is place where you’ll come back multiple times to get through the entire museum. It’s highly recommended if you’re in Cincinnati!

Do you do appraisals

Angela Gordon | Jan 13, 2020
Cincinnati Art Museum (Owner) | Jan 14, 2020

Hi Angela. No, we do not do appraisals. There are two main resources for finding reputable appraisers – The American Society of Appraisers, and the International Society of Appraisers. On each organization's website you should be able to search by geographic region or by specialty. These are independent organizations and are in no way affiliated with the Art Museum. Hope this helps! -CAM

Unless the dog is a registered service animal, I highly recommend leaving it in a safe well-ventilated space while you enjoy the art. The museum is located in Eden park and the dog could enjoy a leashed walk about the exterior grounds before and after your visit inside...do do bag in hand!
