The Building is a gorgeous example of modern Caribbean architecture and the collection is a must see. Very complete and carefully curated.

We had a fun hour that we spent looking at the art in this museum. It is a good way to stop by on your drive around Puerto Rico and the building itself is really gorgeous.

Beautiful art. Despite the ordeal that the island has gone through. The museum was not 100% open, but the staff and tour girl were immensely helpful and knowledgeable of the art. Still, we had a great cultured time.

Definitely a few hours is not enough to enjoy this museum! It is gorgeous!!! From the architecture of the building itself to the art inside! The souvenir shop is slightly expensive but don't miss it!!!! I would recomend you to call prior so you can get a tour guide. Also: if you're a student with a valid ID you get a discount! If you're going to Ponce don't miss the museum!!! P.S all the paintings, particularly scenery ones look way better live!
