As a museum buff I always look to see what is around. This little gem is small but offers an interesting collection. Is it worth the walk and the $10 entry fee? Well, I could have blown it on a slot in 2 min. but I got a nice repreive from the bustle of Reno. More

The exhibits are changed often and are always informative and well done. The restaurant on the main level offers a nice lunch in a pleasant atmosphere with large windows. Senior discounts are available. More

A good museum, albeit a bit small. Lots of interesting art, however, and the staff are very knowledgeable and courteous. More

Tiffany exhibit was wonderful! The 7 church windows were so beautiful. Very big and spacious in downtown Reno. We got in free on a special day. There is a restaurant but it wasn't open as it was Easter. More

Love this museum. Try a docent tour to get more of the backstory of the artworks. More

Stopped by recently to see museum's Tiffany exhibit. Smaller collection than I imagined but solid representative (almost all were from other manufactures). Other permanent collection items educational. I did feel that although building is neatly designed space was oddly utilized. Regardless, worth a visit. Took a couple hours to take it all in. More

Already the buidling itself is worth a closer look. The art objects are different, they range from pistols via modern paintings to wonderful Tiffany lamps. The highlights are no doubt the seven rediscovered Tiffany windows named for the angels in the Biblical Book of Revelation More

It is a wonderful museum, in design and in accessibility. If you haven't visited the Nevada Museum, then you are really missing out on a real treasure! More
