💬 What Visitors Say

• 💬Admission is always free, making it an exceptional value. Consider pairing your visit with the nearby Natural History Museum to maximize a full day of exploration in this museum district.
• 💬Plan for at least 2-3 hours to explore key collections like the armor and sword exhibits, Egyptian galleries, and modern/contemporary art. Even one hour allows you to see highlights, but the collection's depth rewards extended visits.
• 💬The ArtLens Gallery with interactive art-making experiences is temporarily closed until July 2026, so adjust your visit plans accordingly. However, the museum still offers gallery tours and hands-on art-making activities throughout other spaces.
• 💡The welcoming Welcome Building connects to the main museum through a spacious covered courtyard—perfect for families with strollers or those seeking accessible routes. Parking is available for $14 and is easy to access.
• 💬Budget extra for the museum café, which visitors note has quality food but higher prices. The museum shop also offers items available for curbside pickup if you order online, a convenient option before or after your visit.
