  • This is a lovely collection of art and artifacts. The current exhibit of local flowers in glass is delicate and beautiful. I really enjoyed the textiles on display and items from Blowing Rock’s...

  • A block off Main Street but worth the stop. Even if you only catch the 15 minute video of the history of the area. Beautiful space with a small gift shop too.

  • Beautiful museum in a well-designed, unobtrusive stone building that on the day I visited showcased the work of NC artists in two striking exhibits. One displayed several gorgeous landscapes by noted painter John Beerman and the other selected and truly varied works from the pottery collection of an NC couple. How wonderful also that admission is free!
  • My family visited for a day and stopped in the museum. It was great to see so much art from 1800s and early 1900s. There was much to see... paintings, glass works, and sculptures. The people were friendly and informative
