  "American Art in Arkansas"
  "Plan to spend the day, or even 2 if you plan to explore any of the trails. The setting is beautiful in the Spring - many flowers and flowering trees, and I imagine even better in Autumn when the whole of Northwest Arkansas is beautiful. The single negative thing about the place is the crowds. Oth..."erwise, it is wonderful - even the building is interesting and unique.

  "excellent museum of American art"
  "This was my second trip to the museum, which opened 11-11-11 and some of the pictures had been moved and there were new ones to see. The museum has fantastic views of the outside from many of the galleries, with the outdoor sculptures and scenery as much a part of the display as the indoor art. ..." The musuem has samples of American artists up through a few recent ones, and it is a small enough museum that you can walk through it all in one viewing. This is a beautiful location, with walks from near the center of town out to the museum, along paths with sculptures, flowers and shrubs in the massive trees. Don't miss the outdoors! " More >
