  • An extensive collection of art work that you will find a gallery that moves and speak to you regardless of your style of art appreciation.

  • Cute local art museum. Pretty quick walk through. Can do it in about 2 hours and still see everything. A mix of old and new with the art separated out into regions and eras. Free on Thursdays!! And discounted parking at the college garage next door. Don’t mind the construction, it’s temporary and the grounds will be so beautiful when finished. Here are some of my favorite pieces that were on display during my visit!
  • 100% worth the visit. This space has something for everyone… from European collections, to Modern & Contemporary, or even (my personal favorites) 1,600+ drawings and sketches! Just enough exhibits to keep you busy for a few hours, but not overwhelming. Good to Knows - No Bags, Backpacks or Beverages… they will provide you with a locker to store your belongings while you explore! - Construction… you have to pay *extra* attention to find the entrance. Signage wasn’t totally clear. But excited for the big reveal in 2023!
