A fantastic museum and well worth visiting. I came for their Dress Codes exhibition but ended up spending half the day there also exploring the other galleries which I hadn’t planned. Not only did the artwork draw me in but the exhibition design and interpretive text is eye-catching and well-designed. I look forward to coming back in the future and will def be recommending this to other museum goers when they’re in the area.

Fun museum detailing the history of the American west - great kid education moment. Also had a fun exhibition on the history of the Aloha shirt and denim when I went. Yee-haw! 🤠
