    Very balanced atmosphere but understandably the operating costs prohibit more grandeur exhibits. The in-house catering for social events is very efficiently handled (although scarcity of tables/chairs for sit-down meals is surprising). The exhibits are genuine eye-candy but one should dig a little deeper if time permits on premises or later as practical.

    One word huge!

    The Birmingham art museum is free admissions between noon and five pm. They have friendly, knowledgeable security and staff on each floor for individual inquiries and the protection of the artwork. Provides on site devices linked to there site to help you get a better contextual link to the artist and their work. Some pieces even have audio of the artist or a video of art craft history and making process.

    Highly extensive. Also, very nice to wander through. Plus it's FREE. I've made trips to Birmingham just to go to the art museum, so that's saying something. They offer a good array of native American art, European art, and pottery collections as well as a rather fantastic modern contemporary art exhibit as well.

    I was thoroughly impressed. More Asian artifacts than I've seen nearly anywhere else. You really need several trips to give it it's due. The Third Space exhibit was tremendous. My 8 year old daughter loved the Bart Childrens area. Top notch experience. I can't wait to go back!!!!

    Truly an exceptional encyclopedic collection, well-curated and laid out for everyone to enjoy. For example, the Native American collection includes early teaching pieces, but also stunning modern works, in a way that lets you understand the evolution of an artistic style, as well as see that this is still an active, creative culture. In addition, the displays are set so that everyone, including children and people in wheelchairs have easy access to the pieces. Worth the visit.

    It's free, so it would be hard to complain regardless, but it's also honestly worth a trip into town. Their Renaissance selection is surprisingly great! They cover European and American art with respectable volume and variety, and they hit all the other regions with smaller but still interesting selections. Plenty of historical background is provided. Each area goes beyond 2D art, showing off stuff like furniture or armor or pottery, too. There's a modern art section, as well. And the sculpture garden is just pleasant!

    You can easily kill a few hours at this gallery.

    Parking at the garage to the left, past the event hall, was also free on Sunday.

    We took a group of homeschool families today. The docents were awesome! The kids were engaged the whole time. I was impressed with how prepared they were for our group. My kids thought it was going to be boring. In the middle of the tour my 8 year old turned to me and stated that she was actually liking the tour. They both want to go back soon.

    A great place to spend the day. Especially when you hit it on an event day. This particular day included an evening of classical East Indian music. And it was all free.

    I had a wonderful time in this art museum. Very nice collection of Renaissance paintings. I would highly recommend this place to visitors. They only ask for a donation for admission, so be generous when donating.

    Free, yet so rich. My daughter's pick for her birthday activity. Always the staples with new exhibits. Great place to rent for an event too.

    I'll be honest, because this museum has free admission, I wasn't sure what to expect, however, I ended up spending most of my day there and thoroughly enjoyed it- there was much to see, read, and learn! I wish more educational things like this were available at the affordable cost of free! ;) (There is a donation box located at the entrance for those who want to; I personally think it's worth the donation if you can afford it so that places like this can remain free for everyone to enjoy. :)
