    I loved this museum. I spent over two hours contemplating different types of art from various countries and continents. This intimate museum contains treasures.
    And it's free! I really recommend!

    Absolutely amazing! This art museum was well put together and you could see the care that the team puts in to the preservation of the collections. There was a very cool Mediterranean exhibit downstairs, but overall, all of the artwork was interesting.
    A special shoutout to the staff all who were helpful and friendly. We were visiting from out of the state and they helped us to navigate some logistics.

    We recently visited this museum, which focuses primarily on contemporary art, and had a wonderful experience despite some galleries from the permanent collection being closed for renovations. The temporary exhibitions and available galleries more than made up for it and we spent about one hour enjoying the art.
    The collection of African artifacts, particularly the masks, was fascinating and helped us gain a deeper understanding of their cultural significance. We also appreciated the opportunity to view a rare, smaller Rothko and admired the works of Chilean artist Roberto Matta, whose pieces added a unique perspective to the museum’s offerings.
    One highlight was how clearly the museum labeled its new acquisitions. This provided valuable insights into emerging trends and artists shaping the contemporary art landscape. We were especially interested in the art for social change exhibition and seeing art from black artists. The section on lesbian perspectives stood out as intriguing and educational, offering a window into diverse experiences.
    The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, and maps and brochures were available to guide us through the exhibits.
    Admission is free, with donations encouraged. Public parking is available in front of the museum with special permit, though not required during the weekends.
    The museum also has water fountains and comfortable, clean restrooms.
    We highly recommend this museum and hope to come back soon!!
