    Special exhibits are excellent, diverse and change regularly. Go more than once! They make a much appreciated effort to involve, display and encourage young artists, their community and schools.

    You don't get to say this very often at an art museum, but the guest/customer service here is excellent. As I'm sure has already been mentioned, the architecture alone is worth a peek inside.

    The Martin ArtQuest gallery is great for kids! We came on a Sunday afternoon and were able to spend several hours of fun here. Kids and adults enjoyed making their own art!

    A great art museum in an old post office building. Check in with your hotel Concierge to see if there are any deals on tickets.

    The staff is very helpful and the building is completely done in the Art Deco style. If you can, you should make it here before the Art Deco car exhibit ends; it's very cool.

    With an exhibitions schedule that has new exhibits in the Art Deco building every 6 to 8 weeks, you will always see something new. Also has a wonderful Cafe and live music in the lobby.

    Traveling exhibits. They have a kids area that would be good if you have some younger artsy kids. Exhibits that were in Aug. 15 were well done.

    Art is always wonderful here. The gift shop prices are always too high here, and the old man that walks around making sure nothing is harmed...is a dick!
