Reviews
It is small right now but they are remodeling the big one next door.The kids loved the activity room and the funny pictures of real people.
I had such a great time. They have so much to view. They had a wide variety of works of art. They had so many historical things that highlight Columbus. They had such beautiful art and had great details about the pieces. This was a wonderful outing and I recommend anyone that enjoys art to come and enjoy the museum. It's got something for everyone.
My wife and I visited Columbua ga last weekend and were looking for fun thongs to do so we decided to give this museum a try. We really weren't expecting it to be much at all bit boy were we surprised. The place is huge inside and it has so many exhibits. Art, history, weapons, and so much of our states historical history for the central ga area.. We spent almost 3 hours on one floor. The pictures I posted here do it no justice but we would absolutely recommend stopping in and taking a walk around it is worth the time.
Very clean and professional museum. My grandmother and I have gone for their glass blowing workshops and love those!!
However, the museum is usually void of people unless an event is going on. If you are younger than 50, the staff and guards follow you around and watch you, and do not come off as friendly or willing to make conversation. It is very overbearing. This distracts from the very interesting and well put together showcasing and collections.
We love the community programming for all ages! And even during renovations, the museum is offering excellent exhibits like the awkward family photos in a temporary space. Gold stars!
Best workshops. We’ve been already to the Fall and winter workshops for glass blowing and we’ve loved them. The marketplace is great too and so are the local collections. Well maintained and a “must visit.”
Don't forget to visit this cultural icon of Columbus! I learned so much about portrait history, furniture, and culture of Columbus by coming here. It's not just history, they have art by featured African American artists that I had never heard of, and can now appreciate thanks to my exposure here. I wasn't able to see the uppermost level, but it looked interactive and had beautiful symbolism. Too bad my kid lost his temper and I had to leave early!
Beautiful gallery! From the outside I expected it to be a small collection of boring work but I was wrong! They had quite a bit of work to offer! There was also a children's room for them to interact and play, which I thought was a genius idea. If you enjoy museums and visiting Columbus, this is a place to see!
