    There were some interesting art work with nice stories behind them. The student sections showed artwork that we have to look forward to watch them grow and one day we will see them hanging up in the exhibits.

    My first time visiting. I loved The Rarely Seen exhibit and the student exhibition. I am always blown away by artistic talent like that. Also seems a great place to take my nieces and nephew. Can walk them through to apprrciate the art upstairs and then enjoy the kids' area downstairs where they have hands on experiences.

    This is a fantastic art museum! It has a unique focus on birds. Lots of interesting special exhibits that vary in focus. The presentations for new exhibits or by Artists- in- Residence are informative and entertaining. Outdoor sculpture garden is engaging. Free Admission.

    A stunning sculpture garden surrounds the multi-storied building. The interior is bright, clean and beautiful in its simplicity. There was an artist q&a and demonstration, along with some of his work for sale. There is a dedicated section for children to create and learn as well. We didn't have time to explore the gift shop sadly.

    Lovely stop! The Birds exhibit is fun for old and young alike. If you have time for a little or a lot this has easy on site parking and is free. In door and outdoor areas to sit or enjoy art.

    Art pieces were amazing. The kids art area is very unique and engaging. Outdoor sculpture garden is great for walking around and photography. Museum audio tour is available through an app. Museum staff are very friendly and helpful.

    Great place if you're in love with all things art! New exhibits come in all the time, so there's always something now. A very quiet place too. Friendly staff.

    Oh I can't say enough about this museum!!!! If you like art and if your kids enjoy creating things then this is a place for you! There's a section in the basement purely for kids with little tables for them to create things pertaining to the exhibit they are showing. Or they can go over and play and enjoy stuff that is also pertaining to the exhibit upstairs. They have an outside area that you can walk through with sculptures. The exhibits change over a course of time and they display something new. If you plan ahead of time they will prepare a tour for you with a Docent and have a craft at the end. Or you can wander through it @ your leisure. And the best part is it's all FREE!

    Very nicely laid out. It was easy to walk about and view the paintings and drawings. I was there in the last week of the Escher exhibit and it was a bit fill, however it was easy to go on to another picture and come back. I also enjoyed the smaller exhibit of a regional artist that showed similarities to Escher. Will come back when it is not raining to see the outdoor bird sculptures.

    We went for the Escher exhibit, first time there. A spectacular collection, a great companion app for phone or check out a tablet to get commentary on the exhibits. One of the nicest art museums I've been to. We plan on going back for the next exhibit. The permanent exhibit is birds, the art strongly reminded me of the Rollo Beck bird collection I knew at San Jose State University in California in the '60s.
