A small museum that really should be called a gallery. They had two exhibitions that were interesting, but the installation was amateurish. Literally, some crooked paintings on the wall. That drives me crazy. The layout of the building is unusual and kind of awkward. We did enjoy very much a presentation given by a photographer, which was held in a... More

We really enjoyed our visit to this museum. The "primordial" exhibit was absolutely wonderful and we really enjoyed the entire 2nd floor--from Glackens to the Vasarely and other modern art. It's a warm and well-conceived museum and has terrific art classes. More

We always have agood time going there, with so many exhibitions going. Lines are too long, sometimes, so be patient. It is a great place when it's rainy, of course. More

Not the stuffy forbidding feeling one often thinks of when you think of "museum". The employees were friendly, smiling and helpful. There were cushioned benches throughout,so you can just "drink in" the inspiring art. Each of us was given a small electronic "guide" for use if we wanted, a great idea, enabling all us to go through at our own... More

William Glackens' impressionist paintings enjoy a delightful permanent presence in the Museum upstairs, and present a wonderful counterpoint to the often modern collections that come and go. There is also a lovely reproduction of a room in his home with some of his paintings exhibited there. If you like impressionism, you may not be familiar with this artist. The exhibit... More

Nice smaller museum. The current traveling exhibit is a collection of old master's paintings and tapestries from the Renaissance and Baroque period from the Uffizi Gallery, very interesting. I takes a morning or short afternoon to see the whole museum. More
