Reviews
Great little museum for art lovers! It was a cool, clean setup inside, as well as some things for children. Their gift shop had some neat things too. I hope to go back soon for the new exhibit they were putting up!
This is a very nice museum and staff. The location is great and it was my first stop and where I learned that I could pay $10 and visit other museums as long as I had my receipt. It last 7 days except for the ticket bought on Sunday. That ticket is only $5 because only 3 museums open and expired that day.
The special exhibit is the Seance by American artist Shannon Taggart. It’s quite interesting and helps to see how others think etc.
There are paintings on the 2nd floor. They are by different artist.
There is a gift shop. I love art and if you are the same, highly recommend touring this museum!
We visited on Labor Day Saturday. Parking is along the street means you may have a bit of a walk. Buying entrance to one historical area, gives you entrance to a number of others in the area. Very good value for the money.
Downstairs has some nice pieces. Upstairs is for the touring exhibit. A very nice museum for a smaller town.
The art itself was OK. It’s just a small, local museum, and it’s unfair to treat it as anything else. Since the tickets are inexpensive ($10 adult, $5 big kids) and good for the whole week and for any of the museums in the area, it’s absolutely worth the price.
I wish there had been deeper explanations/more information about the art and artists.
Regardless, the kids’ creativity corner alone is worth 5 stars from me. What an amazing touch!
I would really like to know what their yearly budget is. Okay, to be fair I want to state it's been a long since I have been here. I remember paintings and busts, drawings pottery and all sorts of what not. And before anyone gets the idea that I'm some sort of uneducated heathen, I have been to many museums and all sorts of galleries. So when I got the chance to go back I eagerly hopped onto the excursion. Think it cost about $12 bucks a head.
At that cost, you are spending about $4 bucks a minute to walk around and look. Had some photos and color balances. Some A/V art. Was disappointed but who am I to say because art is subjective.
The art gallery at Pensacola State College up on 9th Ave.
Oh well, can't always hit a home run every time out.
Me and my family enjoyed this museum!
The featured exhibit was amazing. Photography is a passion of mine. Not just taking photographs, but learning the history as well. Their Photography exhibit was first-rate.
I don't know what I was expecting but I was frankly underwhelmed. You can pretty much see everything in under 30 mins unless you're reading every plaque and one of the displays is basically a recording that is too distorted to understand what it's saying. It also had trigger warnings but they were poorly placed and didn't look like warnings and were easily missed.
