This is a bit of a hidden gem and it is well worth a couple of hours. The staff are wonderful, one attendant really went out of his way to ensure we saw the highlights during our extremely limited time there. It's set in beautiful parklands which are also worth spending time in. More

These museum is located in a very pretty park. The staff treated us very well and were very helpful including the secuirty guards. The museum is small, so I would do it at the end of day only if you have time. I also liked the blowed glass but a small exhibit. More

The MMFA is set in a lovely area overlooking a grand pond. The art is fresh and varied, always interesting. There is a wonderful interactive area for smaller children that never seems to get old. The cafe is delightful. The gift shop offers interesting items, perfect for gifts. A visit is a wonderful diversion from the mainstream. Don't miss the... More

While the museum overall is very nice and has great exhibits. The childrens exhibit is excellent. We took our 4 year old grandson here and found enough to keep his interest for an entire morning. Many of the exhibits are interactive and very interesting and fun enough to make it difficult to tear him away from some of them. More

This is a must everytime we visit the area. My kids have gone there about once a year since they were 2. There are so many things they can see, try, test, do, etc. You can spend a little time or a lot depending on the attention span of your child. You can move freely through the area and backtrack...

I can only review the kid area in the museum as we never made it any farther. It's two stories with the lower portion full of fun things for preschool age and up. The second floor is for younger children and has tons of books, blocks, and even things for a puppet show. My little guy loved it and we... More

The Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts is very nice and new, set in beautiful surroundings and containing some very fine pieces of contemporary and older art. There are sculptures, glass and porcelain as well. It is a free, and relaxing couple of hours. It is located in an enormous park, so if you like to hike, this is an extra. More
