We 2 sisters visited while in town for a music festival. Easy to find and lots of parking all around the building; we were there on a Thursday afternoon. Kind and helpful employees, small collection but some great pieces like a Rodin sculpture, art representing an artist's view of traumatized people, a Whistler painting, and more. Nice gift shop and restrooms. Probably won't go again anytime soon but recommend for others to check it out. Thursdays are free admission too.

This art museum drew us to Muskegon on a day visit! The art collection and the glass gallery are superb for a town of its size. We were so happy to see the works of Hopper, Bellows, Pissarro, Sisley, Bonnard, Winslow Homer, John Steuart Curry, Henry Ossawa Tanner, and Deborah Butterfield, plus the beautiful glass gallery with Tiffany and Steuben glass and works by Littleton, Chihuly, Lipofsky, and Toots Zinsky! The museum was safeguarded for COVID, requiring masks to be work and social distancing to be practiced, with plexiglas shields in place at the ticket desk and the info desks. Friendly staff! We enjoyed chatting with them several times as we strolled through the galleries. Thank you!!

Saw the glass exhibit. Spectacular. If you are reading from afar, this museum is one of Midwest’s jewels. They have a permanent collection of glass. A portion of it is on exhibit now. All their exhibits are interesting. They recently had Edward Curtis’s portraits - they also own one of the few complete sets! Edward Hopper, Bonnard, Homer, Whistler, Rodin, Pissarro, David Kroll and many more are part of their permanent collection as well. Always worth a stop.

A small but remarkable museum of art that includes works by Edward Hopper, John Stuart Currier, Alfred Sisley, Romare Bearden, and Tunis Ponsen, as well as a large collection of photographs taken by Edward Curtis. Not to be missed!

For Muskegon to have this museum and its artwork truly is amazing. I believe a lost of this artwork comes from the logging barons that lived in town.

The Muskegon Museum of Arts is located on Webster avenue ,about 2-3 blocks away from the Hackley/Hume houses,the Monet garden is in the vicinity and they can easily be visited on the same day.There is ample parking.The admission tickects are sold in the museum shop,which is located in the basement.The security staff is very helpfull,so is the shop attendant ,she went out of her way to help us.I will let more knowlegeable people discuss the exhibits.I will just say as casual art consumer,I will say that I spent an agreable hour at the museum.

Niice collection of art from african american artists and old masters. Loved the Hopper and the small collection of Impressionist work. Staff was warm, friendly - very helpful with activity recommendations. Nice gift shop too. Good place to cool off as well. Kids probably wouldn't be too interested in this stop.

At least once a year I visit the Muskegon Museum of Art...they always have fantastic special exhibits and their standing art work is always great. I highly recommend visiting the Muskegon Museum of Art. My grandchildren love visiting this museum when they come. The gift shop has amazing items for sale that are priced right too.
