The informational placards at this museum really enable a deeper understanding of the art you experience. The Native American art galleries create a unique sense of being grounded in the true spirit of this land. Incredible depth and breadth throughout the entire museum. Could have spent all day here if I didn’t need to eat 😂

We had a great time! Expect to spend at least 2 to 3 hours here as there is so much to see. I would invest in the whistler to Cassatt exhibit right now as it was incredible. We had a great time, and there were 7 floors of exhibits available in the second building. Art selection and the ways they were presented was fantastic. Would totally come again if I were in town
