A real gem of a museum. It's bigger than you would expect and contains some diverse collections of amazing and treasures. It is probably less well-known than some of the other big city art museums, and consequently is less busy which makes it very pleasant to visit.
Something has gone very wrong in one of America's great museums. To begin with, the parking garage is now closed on weekends. WHAT! If you are coming from New York you are at the mercy of limited street parking. The once fine restaurant had become little more than a mediocre sandwich shop. This is still one of the country's great art collections, and it should be a major tourist destination, but no one in charge seems to want to make it one.
The building that the museum is in is quite spectacular and inspiring by itself. The exhibits are also great, and numerous. You'll need a full day to visit everything, and a couple if you want to take your time with everything. The Cabinet of Curiosity is just bursting with intriguing artifacts, you could spend hours there alone! Another great exhibit is the massive hall filled with hundreds of paintings from top to bottom, wall to wall; it's awe inspiring!
Went to the festival of trees. I haven't been to the museum since a middle school field trip. There was so much to explore. I will definitely be going back!
Fantastic museum with a wonderful collection located centrally in Hartford. I visited for a class project and I learned quite a lot! I can't wait to go back and spend a proper amount of time.
