Having some time to kill before catching a flight home, decided to stop at the Nelson-Atkins to look around. Paying $5 to park underneath was the only admission fee. You walk into the Hall of Sculptures which seems to be missing sculptures. There just does not seem to be any theme to any of the rooms.

This is such a fun museum with an encyclopedic art collection. I am a big fan of art museums and this is one of my favorite. Their current display of Rodin is well curated and even has a few interactive displays.

we were there for the mother's day puppet show on the lawn. It is great they have the tiered lawn areas and the trees for shade.

This museum is very easy to navigate and is organized by time periods in art. Non-flash photography is allowed, docents are helpful, and the museum is FREE.

The Nelson-Atkins offers extensive collections that are well displayed in a charming, historic building - with a modern annex. Underground parking connects to the museum through the annex. The area around the museum is pleasant.

The Nelson-Atkins is a Kansas City treasure. The new wing is a beautiful exhibition space and the museum's exhibitions are always first-rate. Admission to the museum is free which enables everyone to enjoy its programs.

Constantly changing, and it attracts some great traveling exhibits. The Nelson Art Gallery is one of Kansas City's greatest residents.

The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art has AMAZING displays. On my last visit I barely made it through a quarter of the museum. On a rainy day you could spend the whole day exploring the different areas of art. The photography was hands down my favorite.
