    This is a fantastic museum and seems to be a hidden gem. Free and one of those places that is laid out so that there are treasures round every corner. Start at the top floor and work your way down.

    Great place for families. It feels safe and there are lots of activities for everyone. Best of all, it’s free! This is also a great place to park, visit for a while and then explore the city.

    The Museum houses the works of artists from every continent - many of which tell stories from thousands of years ago. Public admission to the Museum is complimentary to all.

    The real highlight was the Emery and Wendy Reves collection, incorporating elements from Coco Chanel (for the fashionistas) and Sir Winston Churchill (for the conservative political buffs)!

    Nice permanent collection but the temporary exhibitions are the best and always surprising: Pop Art, Pollock, Irving Penn, I'd recommend'em all!

    Take your time and keep track of what you've seen as it's easy to get turned around. Very clean and staff is friendly and helpful. Very nice free museum.

    The general admission displays are worth it, let alone the special exhibits. I'm particularly a fan of the paintings.

    The AC in this building offers a nice reprieve from the summer heat and you can look at art while you cool off: Win-win!

    I liked the place, but hall monitors follow folks around like gestapo. The exhibits are not Vatican or Louvre quality or age, and 95% of exhibit can be photographed. So, what's the big deal @ photos?

    Great pieces considering that the museum is free, I recommend maybe 4 hrs to do the entire museum.

    You need at least 3 hours to enjoy it... But you could spend an entire day here. Much bigger than we had anticipated.

    Free admission. But plan to pay for parking. Walk across the street afterward to grab lunch at a food truck and hang at Klyde Warren Park.
