The Wolfsonian - Florida International University, Miami Beach

Lovely art deco collection that has incorporated works from the 1920s through the 1940s into exhibits as well as architectural accents. They have temporary exhibits as well that add flavor to the already extensive museum. We saw the entire facility in 2.5 hours, some may take less time depending on how much you read about the pieces. If you're interested in the design of South Beach's iconic look, stop in and learn more. Gift shop is expensive, but they have a nice coffee bar inside with delightful employees.

While it is a very neat museum, the collection is relatively small. Which could be good or bad depending on what you're looking for. If you want a drop all day immersive museum, this is probably not what you're looking for. However, if you want a relatively quick, interesting, and different excersion, this could be right up your alley. Their gift shop/coffee shop is very neat! Some different items than a number of the museum shops I've been in lately (though definitely of the same theme). And the coffee shop is a nice twist. I think it could be a fun little place to read or meet a friend.
