Great art museum. Amazing design of the building and they get great stuff inside as well. We've been there several times. I believe my favorite was when they had the Andy Warhol exhibit a few years back. More

The museum itself is a gorgeous building! Worth it just to see the architecture, inside and out! Reflecting pool and awesome staircases. The gift shop is fun and cool, but very overpriced in the typical museum fashion. The museum is 3 floors, but each floor has a limited amount of art (probably about 50 pieces per floor) and more than... More

GR needed a larger Art Museum, and it got it, in a terrific location to boot. Maybe I like traditional museum style more, but it feels a bit impersonal inside.

If your into modern art or art in general definately worth a visit. The building is very eco friendly and LEED certified. Also, had a great time at the New Years Eve party there and the price was quite reasonable (the cash bar was not too bad either). More

Just spent another evening here at the art museum. Love the open layout of the first floor! The furniture exhibit is sparce but nice. Other exhibits are good.The museum is located next to Rosa Parks Circle, which means fun! Skating in the wintertime! Concerts in the summer time. Always something happening, actually.There are some really cool family activities that you... More
