I LOVED this museum!! I enjoyed it tremedously! It was free. The lady who works there was super nice and helpful. The museum has an incredibly interesting collection! Very high quality! I absolutely loved the Assyrian/Babilonian bas-reliefs. They also colored them with pointed lights - something I've never seen before. It was breathtaking. I loved the collection of unique and girgeous handmade baskets. It was very interesting to learn about the women who made them. Very unique. And of course, the European art! Beautiful collection!! I want to come back and enjoy it again! Also, I have to say that their gift shop had things that I haven't seen anywhere before. Very unique things - crafts, games, books, accessoiries, etc. Very different. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO VISIT this museum!

A fantastic art museum that is open and free to the public with donations accepted. The collection was built in part by the founder of Bowdoin College. It’s a nice combination of early American and European, some modern, and with a smattering of artifacts and works from ancient Egyptian times to Oceana. Not an overwhelming place, manageable for an afternoon stroll, and there’s a great room to practice your echo echo or overtone singing in:).

I am fully vaccinated, but can get and give CVD the very same as those that are unvaccinated. The number of cases in cities that required masks compared to those who did not...THE SAME. The CVD molecule is miniscule, goes right through N95 masks. If you can smell wearing a mask...the CVD molecule can permeate the mask. So completely ignorant. Educate yourselves.

I went here on a college field trip a few years ago and was absolutely fascinated by some of the less seen treasures they have in an out of the way roo. There were some interesting gold coins, cuneiform tablets and a mummified hawk!

A very lovely, accessible museum. Especially interesting to us was the family relationship of N.C. & Andrew Wyeth. The lady, who greeted us, was especially cordial and informative...a credit to the museum .

Gorgeous museum with multiple galleries. Highly accessible for those with mobility concerns and lots of seating on the 2nd floor.
