    I love this museum. Something about the energy of this place. I've been blessed to see some beautiful museums around the world. This one is one of my favorites. They have a cool live music event once a month. Love the diversity in crowds.

    Mainstage fine art museum. Frank Lloyd Wright like design. Great place to hang out all afternoon. Friday Jazz can be fun if a little too trendy for my taste. Feels like a dating game, hook up event. Well worth the membership for the benefits.
