Took my 15yr old and we had a nice time walking around seeing all the art work. Took about 45min to an hour to go through it all. Says turn off cell phones so reapected the sign and didn't take pictures of the art inside. Please reapect that request from them. The cost to get in is reasonable and says prices on the door before going inside. They had a lot of Rockwell pictures that were on the magazines years ago. A great place to take a leisure walk and ponder on the paintings. I found it fascinating there was a letter from Nixon to then president for sending a clay pottery item to him. Indiana had clay and the room where could see some of the items made from it was pretty cool. Also Rockwell wrote a letter about Abraham lincoln picture he did and can read it too. Pretty awesome place to go to if into Art or want some where new to you to check out.

Very nice assortment of art from paintings to pottery and bronze statues. Enjoyable strolling around looking into the minds of the various artists. They offer membership packages, single visits passes, and have specials for seniors and students. The place seems well maintained but the carpet on the walls certainly makes it appear less appealing. The staff was quick to offer historical data and an overview of the art contained therein. Not the best exhibits I've seen but with the rich history of the building, the art, and staff friendliness I have to give this place 5* OVERALL!

We spent it enjoyable hour or so here looking at some amazing art! They have a nice collection and have things from local artists also. I was very impressed that they have three Warhols, a couple from Robert Indiana and a Grant Wood! The docent was very knowledgeable and friendly but didn't hover. Totally worth the $10/person!💥

Great experience! Art was great, but staff was even better. I took 2 5 year olds and a 2 year old. They had a scavenger hunt for us which was great to keep the kids entertained.
