Every year on June 13th we visit the museum. We were married in the Nonsuch Gallery, on the Nonsuch. The museum made it so easy, and were wonderful to work with. It is an experience that we will treasure forever, and now the museum is a place we like to visit regularly. More

Over the years we have taken visitors from Japan, Brazil, Germany and other parts of Europe to this World Class museum and no one has been disappointed. The Urban Gallery is still my (and my now teenage kid's) favorite exhibit! More
