I ended up with some extra time in Milwaukee, so I headed down the check out the museum. IT'S GREAT! I had no idea. The collection is small, but well-curated and the building itself -- holy cow. It's glorious. A must see! more

Architecturally-speaking, this is a great museum. The Santiago Calatrava addition with the opening and closing wings is just gorgeous--it was his first building completed in North America, and it's really a gem of the city. If you're in a rush or with a group that lacks the patience to explore the collection, still go and explore the building. With some... more

This is a true gem of Milwaukee. The building itself is impressive with the retractable wings. The exhibits are great. I'm not exactly the world's biggest art fan, but some of the items were really great and there is something for everyone. more

If you are in the Milwaukee area (don't make a special trip) by all means stop by to see the exterior of this museum. It is beautiful and unique. However, DO NOT pay the usurer admission rate of $14--or any amount--to enter the museum. The collection is "a whole lot of nothing" as an elderly neighbor of mine used to... more

The new building is an architectural gem on the shore of the lake. Watch the sail open & close. The Bradley collection of contemporary art in its own building is fantastic. Other genres are well represented. You will enjoy many hours here. Walk here from downtown hotels. more

The collection of art is impressive considering it's in Milwaukee, WI but even more impressive is the building itself. It's the most photogenic building I've had the pleasure to visit to date. They open and close the wings several times per day and if you have the time to experience that it's worth it. It's a must see as far... more

Wow! What a place! Even before we entered the MAM, we were entertained by the beautiful fountains in The Cudahy Gardens. We took the walkway towards the Quadracci Pavilion and then took a few stairs down and entered at ground level. Once inside, we were met by a nice man who asked us if we needed any help -- very... more

Quite a fascinating place, both inside and out. Walking around outside of it, and coming upon it walking near the lake, its quite a surprise. Inside, the way the light is tossed around by the glass, the different angles and different materials, its both stunning and very playful. more
