Such a diverse collection with rotating exhibitions. We love seeing what's new and different. The kids room is wonderful for young emerging artists.
Went for the Art After Dark and was amazed! Grew up coming here as a child, but felt very special at this event. I felt like it was a private invite only party, with the whole muesum open the night we went. But it was all free! Not crowded at all, a very pleasant evening and a spur of the moment when we were downtown!
This Museum remains one of the best features of Cincinnati's art scene. Both admission and parking are free at the Museum. They constantly have rolling exhibits which provides a fairly regular influx of new art. The museum is huge and fascinating to visit.
I love the Cincinnati Art Museum. Beautiful inside and out, amazing exhibits, and some really phenomenal traveling exhibitions come through. The new children's area is awesome too. Always something new. And always free
Parking is free whether around the side of the museum or at the bottom of the hill.
Something important to note - CAM is HUGE. If you really wanted to see everything, you’d probably want to make a day trip of it.
You’ll want to grab a map or you’ll get lost and/or miss exhibits.
Exhibits vary widely from paintings, sculptures, textiles from every era and in every medium you could possibly imagine. There is something for everyone. The Ana England Kinship exhibit was my favorite, hands down.
General admission is free which covers 90% of the museum. There are also ticketed exhibitions.
There is a coffee counter in the main lobby and there was a lively band playing upbeat music.
Lots of places to sit and take a break. I did see a kid’s area. Free WiFi was also available.
A fantastic museum which features a large variety of galleries and the icing on the cake is the restaurant inside the museum which is call The Terrace Cafe, in the summer they have a wonderful shaded patio in a lovely courtyard. This would make a great day date.
I got museum fatigue trying to see it all in four hours. Do NOT miss the Grant Wood of the DAR ladies. Really amazing collection of American art from several eras. I learned about artists I'd never heard of before like Henry Farney. I recommend scheduling at least two separate trips to this amazing resource if you're visiting from out of town. If you live in Cincinnati, you have a great museum. Hope you appreciate it sufficiently.
The museum is free and open to the public. Parking is now free which is a game changer for low income families. Most special exhibits are free as well. The hands on stations for children makes taking my nephew to the museum a more enjoyable experience. Minus a star because there is no obvious handicap entrance.
Have not been here since being a child. The Tiffany exhibit was the draw, but saw so many other amazing parts to the museum. The staff was helpful, the cafe and gift shop are nice. Wish there were more bathrooms spread throughout the museum. Art is in periods with benches. Monet, Manet.
The Art is displayed well without crowding. Benches are great to sit in front of pieces.
Varied works of different mediums and periods arranged by regions. Cincinnati's people are lucky to have such treasures in a beautiful building(Library/Archive annex being modern clash with existing architecture) in beautiful Eden Park.
There is some interactive stuff for children.
A cafe plus coffee, water is available in front near the gift shop. A food truck had pulled up as we were leaving.
This museum is a great place to go to when you have no other plans and are looking for something to do in the Cincinnati area. I brought my 9 year old here and she loved it. This was an amazing experience and I am planning on visiting again.
Amazing collection of art. And it's free (some special exhibits charge, but overall, the main parts of the collection are free!). Take your time and explore the different areas and enjoy some food at the cafe. I love eating in the patio area surrounded by the courtyard. Great for a date.
One of the best classic art museums in the United States. Well run and always a joy to visit and learn. Great special shows one after the last. Fun to go with friends. Or alone. Worth going out of your way to experience.
My wife and I stumbled upon this museum on a trip to the area. I must say it was a great museum! We have been to some of the great art museums in Europe and this one is not far behind. The collection is very diverse and well displayed. Plan a few hours if you are going because it is a large and beautiful building which begs to be searched. The cherry on top of the whole deal is it is free admission!!!
I have been going here since i was little, and I am fortunate enough to have the museum still hold its magic. I routinely visit my favorite pieces and encourage others to go with me. The museum helped inspire me to become a creative professional! It's my favorite part of the Cincinnati Area! :^D
