The art museum security takes their job very seriously. Every time me and my family visit we are followed like we are about to shoplift. This visit was no exception with an additional "spit your chewing gum into this baggie from my pocket" experience.

Great museum! The mummified cat was neat. They had some really nice pieces and everyone we spoke with that worked there was super nice. If you get to close to something it announces that you’re too close and to back up. Beautiful pieces in the gift shop as well.

Where is the main entrance or how do I get in?

Isis Jones | Oct 17, 2021
Katherine Arnold | Oct 17, 2021

My husband and I parked in the lot between Art Museum Drive and I75 just west of the Art Museum Drive x Lincoln Avenue intersection. Entrance to the lot is on the end opposite intersection. We found it following signs. Once parked, we followed the sidewalk to glass doors and a brick paved section that's on the south side of the building pretty close to the intersect I mentioned before. Finding the parking lot was harder than the door for me. If you look at the museum with Google earth the lot I'm taking about had a long strip of solar panels. The entrance (an entrance? Had a welcome desk) is that orange brick patch. With covid there are stickers on the floor indicating guess spacing. Following them leads to the welcome desk.

Does the cafe have strings of beads and artistic hand made beads in their windows? I’m trying to find the museum I went to and was inspired.
