REVIEWS OF Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art IN Connecticut

Bill Sanford

If you like art, specifically paintings you will love the place. Actually it's worth a visit just for the architecture. There are masterpieces here that predate the birth of our country. No visit to Connecticut is complete without a stop here, at one of the oldest museums in the nation. If you have a B of A card you're in luck since this is on the 'Museums on Us' list.

Ric Nalette

Impressive collection of everything from the old masters to modern art. We spent 4 hrs wandering the halls and could have spent another 4! Fun, interactive exhibits and kid friendly activities found scattered across the museum's 4 floors and multiple (connected) buildings. Frequently rotated exhibits mean repeat visits are never boring. It's worth making plans to see!

Amy Binette

This place is spectacular! It has everything I imagined a museum would have AND THEN SIME! The workers are very nice and very helpful. I will visit many many many more times. Spent 2 hours there and barely scratch the surface. If you're going to go, plan a WHOLE DAY FROM OPEN TO CLOSE.

Lydia Gruber

Great place to watch a great show.

Melissa Freeman

Even though we are members of the museum and visit it often, we decided to take one of the guided tours and we were happy that we did. The tour highlighted some of the treasures in the museum like the recently acquired Poppies by Van Gogh and the beautiful La Vecchio on loan to the museum. Just a wonderful museum that we love to visit over and over. I would highly recommended these guides tour talks.

pat willis

Perfect day trip! We got a free pass from our local library. Beautiful and famous pieces of art. Highly recommended.

Dominic Hudson

The Wadsworth Atheneum is a beautiful museum that has a well-curated collection and an inviting atmosphere. I went here with my family for a day trip and we all enjoyed the variation in the art, ranging from contemporary to antiquities. Highly recommend.

Kim Hecht

Wonderful tour with Sara. Bistro cafe was wonderful and very accommodating. What a treasure in downtown Hartford.

Carlton Walker

What are the world's famous museums

Sarah Cooper

Diane was a friendly & knowledgeable guide & even though the space of any museum is not terribly kid friendly, it was amusing to keep 4th graders quiet. The Atheneum does have some neat exhibits, famous artists' work as well as some R hard 2 grasp your head around.. kids would paint some better I think quietly....

Jeff Gould

A beautiful museum. Great tour.

Donna Hulme

Went to see the recently authenticated Van Gogh and was really impressed with the museum, collections and staff. Worth taking the time

Caleb Brendan

What an awesome place to see great artwork - historically significant one! A very nice museum to visit with friends and family and yes kids - this place is kids friendly and its such a nice learning experience.

Kerri Washington

the most culturally significant place in hartford.

Mason Burhoe

It was good. Went for school trip

Timothy Coble Jr

Went for MLK day celebration. I want to go back and check out the library. Free admission for Hartford residents. Many exhibits to enjoy.

Denise Wilson

It's amazing to have a place of such artistic value close by to bring grandchildren,out of town guests to welcome them to the area.

James Mandala

There was so much to see here that I went out for a quick lunch and returned to see more. Though famous for it's collection of Hudson River School paintings there is a lot more to see. The building is oddly broken up so get a map or you will miss some. I recommend parking in the garage listed on the museums website and get it validated on the museum to avoid expensive parking in the city.

Kitty Slaughter

Love this collection! Really fantastic museum with a large variety of piece from all over. It was great going there and they were part of the museums on us from BofA!

Brandon Munson

Great visit in the last day of surrealist exhibit .

Bryan Kelly

I only wish more people knew how glorious this museum is. Looking forward to the many trips in the future. My family loves the Welcomed Hartford campaign they have now where Hartford residents are provided free admission.

Linda Martin

The Wadworth is a marvelous museum.

Marga Matheny

I used to live in Connecticut and was an ardent Member. I would never visit the Connecticut area without a visit to the Athenaeum. I consider it a beacon for the arts for me!

Greyson Thorne

A must-see sight for New England tourists and locals alike! Not only is the building breathtakingly beautiful and filled with world-famous artwork, the staff are very friendly and attentative to making sure you enjoy your visit and find everything easily. I've dragged at least a dozen people hear and everyone loves it. Make it on your list of to-do activities!

Brian Johnson

Fantastic for family outings and great for date nights. Check out the events, the staff keeps things fresh with a lot of engaging topics and themes.

The Boss

Amazed at the number of artistic pieces. Get there early cause you are gonna spend some time.

Lin Lufkin

Beautiful old museum, great collection, very affordable admission. The current Surrealism exhibit is well curated and a rare opportunity to see amazing examples of the movement together. So happy I went!

David Gauwitz

Great visit. Van Gogh, Monet, Manet, Renoir, and many more. Not a fan of modern art. But if you like it some pieces were interesting. We took the guided tour. It was ok. If you take the tour just ignore some of the personal views of the guide.

Brian McHale

Just go. It's a gem. It has a fantastic collection. The food is good, too. Nice staff.

Tatiana Fonseca

This museum does not get enough credit for the caliber of museum that it is. Full of significant works in historic buildings. The temporary exhibitions are often on the cutting edge of the art scene, and the programs that they provide open up the art world to the larger community.

shawn mcconnell

This place is so much fun

Estee Axelrad

The museum comprises a traditional building and a modern one, and has a vast range of beautiful pieces of art. You can find pieces by the likes of Picasso, Pollock and Dali, and enjoy different types and styles of fine art. The restaurant is perfect for a meal or light refreshment and offers great food with great service. A wonderful place to spend a day.

Forest Song

Very nice the Museum of Art. Recommend to book their tour in advance.

Bob Belanger

Awesome jazz brunch on Easter! Thank you

Marc Gottesdiener

terrific- 1st public museum- a short walk to our office- outstanding venue for culture

david shwanick

Great selection of art

Len Smith

A great place for any age. It's surprising large, covering three floors and there is something for everyone.

Wing Na Wong

I love all the portrait paintings in this musuem, I can spend the whole day in here!

Bruce Brown

Oldest museum in America. That does mean stuffy. Recieved a great many objects from J P Morgan and has acquired many many more.

Ethan Simpson

Went here with some friends. Has a wide selection of art.

Gail Bailey

The Wadsworth Atheneum is a fine mid-size museum with interesting exhibits and a good permanent collection spanning centuries of art, but, if you've experienced some of the renowned museums of the world, it may be a bit of a letdown. If you're from out of state and find yourself in the Hartford area, it's worth a visit.

Robert Bentley

Excellent small art collection covering European, American, and Asian, from ancient to modern. Some of the finest works of the Hudson Valley School are among the highlights. Well worth a stop if you're in Hartford.

Nives Dolsak

Friends recommended we visit it and it was wonderful. I just wished I could see their watercolors that were not exhibited, but it is nice to have something to look forward to for the next visit. Their exhibit on Church, his travels in the Middle east was spectacular.

Nathan Navasatis

Very nice informative and fun for all ages....

Andrew Popow

You wouldn't expect such a well thought-out and extensive collection to be in the city, but it is honestly a must stop even if you are in Hartford for 24 hours. I will say the layout of the museum makes it a bit hard to navigate and see everything, but this was the only negative aspect about the location. Otherwise, this museum has attentive security/staff and has great exhibits.

Laurie Arshonsky

Beautiful fusing of two buildings housing some very beautiful artwork! I love the American Art and Impressionist Paintings. The Modern Art was also well represented. The last hour of the day is free but an hour really isn’t long enough! It was a great experience!

Tim Knight

Incredible exhibits from all over the world. Amazing works of art everywhere you look. And incredible Saturday on their free Second Saturday program. The whole family found works of art they were drawn to. Amazing amount of local history.

Yesliet Diaz Gonzales

The play was awesome

Margarita Figueroa

Very beautiful and peaceful

Anthony McCann

We're talking world class art museum right here in downtown Hartford, CT. Amazes me that our own resident's allow year after year, feature expositions, coveted works secured repeatedly and our citizenship walks, rides by and dare not to enter this adventure in paintings, art works, and highly sought after famous works that are second to none. Don't you and your family be guilty of voluntarily ignoring a very important aspect of well roundedness in education and culture by letting another visiting artist works or 1st class social being held at our place. Be there soon and leave asking yourself, "what took me so long". Best outing for your families cultural development awaits. Cost? Many exhibits are FREE, esp. for Hartford students and residents.

Michael McAuliffe

Went to the theater works play there. Small theater good place to see a play

Magdahli Caez

I love it! Educational, fun, amazing, interesting, unique. I need to go back.

Christopher Ramsey

Wonderful museum, a crown jewel of Hartford and Connecticut.

Phylis Iqbal

I haven't been to the Wadsworth in a long time, but it truly is a great place to visit. They have a lot of interesting exhibits there and it is free to visit from 4-5. One of Hartford's best cultural things to do.

Diane B. Dunn

Very excited eclectic art. Great.

Lonnell Tiggett

"The Russell"love and respect my boy Hugh

Reeves Westmoreland

Good food and good service

Tec. Roberto Miguel Peralta Torres

First art museum in the United States. Free for Hartford residents.

Panda m

Best place to catch a show and look at art at the same time!

Will Koehrsen

A stellar art museum with pieces spanning thousands of years and representing cultures from around the globe. Whatever your taste in art - from ancient sculpture to impressionist paintings to contemporary pieces - you can find something to appreciate in this museum. I highly recommend the Wadsworth Atheneum and it is one if not the top attraction in Hartford. The museum has such a wide array of pieces it can be almost overwhelming, and I found the tours (free with admission) to be a great way to get oriented!

Michael Smith

It's nice an the galleries are Terrific

S. M.

Spectacular museum. So many stunning collections. I was there for the ancient art collection and it was fascinating. The gift shop has many unusual and interesting things, I spent an hour looking at all of them.

Sharron Davis

Pics speak louder than words

Reade James

Fantastic museum and a nice theater.

John Walenczyk

This place is a gem. They have the largest collection of Hudson River School paintings in the world which makes this a must visit for any fan of American art. If you are a fan of art in general you really need to come here.

G Aquino

We were here for three hours! The collection is impressive for its volume, diversity, and scope and the museum itself is quite notable for being the oldest public art museum in the country. With so many art pieces to look at, the experience can be overwhelming so plan to have mini-breaks in between galleries. Be sure to also grab a map at the entrance to help you navigate the labyrinthian space. Street parking is available nearby and we didn't have any difficulty finding a spot on a Sunday morning.

John Holchin

The matrix gallery is always featuring a new contemporary artist. The museum has a large Hudson River School collection, nice landscapes. I enjoy the parts of the collection showing Hartford history, like the stuff from the Colt family. Be sure to check out the audio tours.

Credible Critic

The oldest continuous operating art museum in the US. The museum buildings and grounds reflect the gilded age of the area, when industrialists who built factories, brought wealth and arts back to their towns for their people. May be the proximity to Boston, this museum is often overlooked. You will find European and American arts over many periods here in its permanent exhibits. Most of the important periods are well presented. The rolling contemporary exhibits are well thought out and laid out beautifully throughout the years. The museum location is conducive for exploring many other attractions of the area. Family can easily spend 3-4 hours exploring this museum. One of a must stop in Hartford.

Joelle Yammine

For the amount of artwork this place contains, many of which are by famous artists like Picasso, Van Gogh, Pissaro, Monet, Dali, Lewitt, it does not get enough credit. It also has many contemporary and classical pieces. It's unexpectedly large, and so underrated.

Valerie Sheehy

Lovely docent added so much to our visit. The guards were friendly and fun and the collection is impressive. Definitely worth the trip.

Thomas Carso

Food was very good by staff not very friendly beverage machines didn't work properly

Jeffrey Kinsella-Shaw

We saw the wonderful surrealist exhibit and several rooms of the permanent collection. The exhibition was well hung and perfectly lit, which is truly remarkable given the wide variety in sizes and media on display. The museum was immaculate which was also remarkable given the number of people traipsing through it. The only real challenge was finding parking, which took about 15 minutes. Still definitely worth the effort and time to get their.

Micah Coons

I love this museum. Oldest Art museum in the nation, and just a beautiful space in a vibrant part of town. Parking can be tricky, but totally worth any hassle. I try to come here as often as possible. Exhibits change frequently and it 100% transforms that part of the museum. A great collection, really. The Great Hall is just stunning. Plus, area students and Hartford residents get in for free!

Natalie Parham

Nice place

Rob Peters

Cultural gem in a misunderstood City. The Wadsworth has so much to offer with it's deep collection of art, antiquities, sculptures, and theater. A must visit while in Hartford or driving through. Make a stop, discover a gem.

Saurin Parikh

This place gives me great joy every time I visit it! Amazing exhibits!

Kate Davis

Great art, nice layout with lots of light. The restaurant inside is also wonderful! The setup of the museum is easy to figure out. Be sure to grab a map, and then have fun exploring! You can also get your parking validated, so parking is less expensive!

Iris. Fuentes Castellano

Every nice place to be

Dylan Jacob Chin

Truly an incredible museum, I honestly loved every part. Such a diverse collection of art from around the world and throughout History. The Morgan Great Hall was a completely breathtaking sight.

Chloe P

Great selection of art from all different time periods! Beautiful building as well, and conveniently located right downtown.

Jessica McCue

Today I went with my daughter and her school class to the museum! I was very impressed with the museum staff super friendly our guide Ginger was super nice in explaining to everything to my daughter. The exhibits were nice the gift shop was very cute with many wonderful gift ideas. Then we decided to go the museum restaurant called the Bistro that is within the museum. I would never step foot in that restaurant ever again! The staff seemed very bothered to help my daughter who is in a wheelchair into the restaurant with there lift system. Then the manager came over and told me very rudely my daughter who has food allergies and sensory to food items she could not eat her outside food in his restaurant! It was only fruit and cheese mind you myself included with the rest of my table did buy food from the restaurant so we weren't eating for free or anything. I really think they should educate themselves a bit more on how to treat people with special needs and make them feel a bit more welcomed!

Lei Wen

You can get the free pass for the tickets. Option 1) Bank of America offer free passes and first weekend of each month. Options 2) most local libraries has free passes can be checked out

Lee Garwig

A gem of an art museum..An up close and personal exhibit of everything from early Greece to today. The pottery and porcelain are exquisite.

Rico Reyes

World class collection of art. Fantastic contemporary program and also decorative arts and furniture.

Andre Ayoun

American art , middle size and nice museum

Joseph Robinson

Looks fun but I have never been there before.

Russ Hamilton

Quite an amazing place and collection of renown art. A vastly under appreciated treasure of Hartford.

Mary blaxland

It was pretty here. I went at night to watch the water spouts.

Zanetta Henderson

The Black History tour was great.

Amy Loewenthal

Weekdays 4-5 is free admission. I arrived in Hartford around 4, so I had just a quick visit. The Tap on Wadsworth website gives interesting short recordings about selected works. I enjoyed a few galleries, especially a great George Innes work "Autumn Gold." Gift shop was fun to quickly browse. I'd like to come back with more time. By the way, there are free lockers, where I stashed my heavy daypack.

David Weill

The collection of art will astound you; and from a museum you may never have heard about! I live the Hudson River School collection.

Arno Jullien

A great museum and a must-see in CT, very nice collection inc. Picasso, Chagall, Magritte, Miro and more. Unexpected and really nice. Have a rest at the café it's worth it as well. The staff in the museum and the café are great too! Well done and keep up the great work everyone!!

Esperanza Rivera

Always a wonderful experience. Learn something new each time.

Tessa j

This was a great afternoon visit and best of all free 1 hr before closing, enjoyable afternoon

Himanshu Vasa

Good place where one can spend couple of hours. Some of the artifacts are supported by background which helps better appreciation of the art

Luis Torres

Nice old charm of a place

Teresa Taylor

Great place to take your children... .

jonathan shugarts

Nice gallery with a world-class assembly of rotating exhibits. Parking can be a bit tricky.

Uchenna Ogechukwu

Two of my friends and I went to this museum for a school project and were followed from exhibit to exhibit by multiple security guards for absolutely no reason. We were also continuously stopped and interrupted from enjoying the art by several security guards. We did not feel welcomed at all

Rachel

I loved the amount of art here! And it was all placed so well. My husband and I also came during the second Saturday event and admission was free. There was a lot of activities for children throughout and while we don't have kids of our own we are going to recommend it to our friends who do.

Andrii Gurzov

Amazing place. Spent there more than 3 hours with open-wide eyes and still impressed. Very good memories.

Константин Большак

Wonderful exposition. Great atmosphere

Steve B. Marks, Jr.

Absolutely beautiful. Much larger and nicer than I gave it credit for.

Beth Perry

Great range of art here. Beautiful gallery and nice/super helpful staff! I’ll be back for sure!

Tito Pacheco

They wanted to charge to get in to use the bathroom

Thomas Petersen

Great museum. Very informative, wide variety of works!

This is a beautiful and totally unexpected GEM. The way the artwork is displayed in the Morgan Gallery is in the grand manner of the best museums in Europe, and thru out there is a beautiful representation of many great masters. This museum overall is a second tier collection that is excellent. There are pieces, of course, that ARE first tier, such as those by Klimt. Of great interest is the magnificent Artemisia Gentileschi’s “Self-Portrait as a Lute Player” (ca. 1615–18). It is good for to see female painters whose work survived. There is on display a solitary gown by Parisian design house Worth believed to have belonged to Countess Sophie Petrovna Shouvaloff Benckendorff (1837–1928). One need not see more than this one gown, it is a museum of stitchery in and of itself! We had lunch at the very chic Cafe which is really a full sit down restaurant. The Soupe du Jour was butternut Squash. It was the best I have ever tasted... and I am a bit of a nut about butternut. We found the Bookstore to be delightful, mostly because of the two young ladies who worked there with such incredible enthusiasm AND knowledge about every trinket, book, postcard with regard to how it related to an exhibit past, present or upcoming! First time I have ever experienced that in a museum bookstore! It was so cute, and so appreciated. How rare these days that ANY salesperson has passion about being at work, about looking the customer in the eye! These two ladies get A+. Regarding tickets: Local libraries give free admission passes to this wonderful museum.

Tori Lynn

Beautiful place with a lot of beautiful art. Worth exploring. We had a splendid time and we only made it through one floor.

Howard Drescher

CT Lyric Opera performed Verdi's Don Carlo in the Morgan Great Hall, surrounded by classic paintings from the permanent collection. A great afternoon!

Bruce Durham

Well kept, nice collection, and they have tours.

Laurie Bonjo

Great museum-- lots of contemporary and modern stuff. Easy to park. Not so big that you get swallowed up, but you can spend a day and not be too tired for drinks and dinner afterward.

Sean Hazen

So many great collections

Rob Kilpatrick

One of the best art museums in New England. They have an amazing collection. From rustic furniture to surrealist paintings. Well worth the price of admission.

Jennifer Raquel Klatka

Such a beautiful museum.

Kyanna Ricketts

Wasn't there long

Bonnie Ruggs

Love this place here gone on filed trip here love it

Evin Rollin

This museum was very impressive. It had a little of all the well-known artists as well as lesser knowns and contemporary pieces. It was easy to navigate, the guards were very knowledgeable and there were even docent tours in session. It's definitely worth visiting.

Chunfen Zhou

This art museum is not encyclopedic in scope (mostly European and American artworks, with some objects from the Antiquity and a very small Asian gallery) but the quality of its collections is superb. Beautiful architecture as well.

Kerri Bailey

Loved the variety of the pieces and could spend all day there

Gary R. Brissette

Marsden Hartley's painting was great. I had seen it on loan in Montreal years before and was thrilled to find it here. There were so many great pieces of Art here. I had no idea.

Ronald DeRobertis

It is always a fun and interesting museum to go to They always have new exhibits and the staff is always polite and actually are interested in helping you if you haven't been here you should put it on your to do list .

Mark Warns

The Wadsworth is the best medium-size American city art museum we've visited. Covers the range and has some real gems.

Ayisha Miller

Beautiful museum with fabulous exhibits. A must see when visiting Hartford, CT.

John L. Powell

Free for Hartford residents..... Hudson River school collection.

Amanda West

The Wadsworth always has something worth seeing. The variety there is refreshing. I love the Baroque section and the collection of contemporary artists is a feast for thought. Only draw back is the on street paid parking.

Robert Hillberg

Good history lesson for first visit to Connecticut

Koriru Wo

First class art museum with master piece of collection.

Marcia Lahens

I love this museum. It's a gem, that flies way too far under the radar. They have some wonderful pieces. If you're I, the Hartford area go. If not, plan a trip. You won't be sorry.

Aminah Ali

Great family activity.

Marshall Laskey

Wonderful exhibits. Worth a shot. Parking on the street as well.

Tim Flath

Hartford is an old city with a lot of firsts, the museum is one of the oldest, I went twice once oddly to see all the guns colt firearms (another Hartford landmark) produced over there years in existence, they had general pattons ivory handled revolvers, matched set engraved, the colt 1911.45 a firearm still made today, old colt western pistols , even a matched set of colt dueling pistols, the museum is smallish but from time to time they bring in the big guns, my second visit was for the cavajio exhibit, he is my favorite old master, his realism is incredible mostly religious paintings with a bit of violence it's like your there watching it happen, they have been refurbishing the museum for the last few years and I have not been since, if your in Hartford you should visit.

Stephen Baumann

Perfect. Go there if ever you have an opportunity.

Gene Saxe

better than expectations

Tom Rivera

Always changing great exibits. An amazing permeant collection including Vangoh and Monet. If you love art or are just art curious do yourself a favor and visit the Wadsworth you will be glad you did.

Terry Ernsberger

Definitely visit here! This is one of the best museums I've ever been to. It has a wide collection of various artists from classical masters to Modern Art that will thrill any and all art lovers. Definitely plan to spend all day here. If you arrive at the opening of the doors and stay until they tossed you out, you could see quite a bit of all the art and have a wonderful time all day long. If you have the opportunity, definitely make a multiple day trip to this museum. I keep coming back here for the Thomas Cole paintings and the other wonderful Hudson River School artists. Frederick Church and other masters all congregate in one gallery that is a wonder to behold. One of my other favorite galleries is the Morgan 1 Great Hall. It's laid out like a gallery that you might find 200 years ago with paintings stacked from the floor to the upper reaches of the ceiling. There's such a wide variety of different artists and styles of European art, so be sure to grab one of the guides at each end of the hall so that you can learn more about all of the paintings gracing the walls.

Jae M.

Love second Saturdays free admission and activities for the kids. The volunteers are awesome, the staff wonderful even the security guards are pleasant and welcoming

Christa Galitello

This is the oldest continually operating art museum in the United States, and it's right in the heart of Hartford. It's $15 to get in, or free if you're a Hartford resident, and there's a days worth of things to see. From Van Gogh to Pollock, pieces from the 1600s to present times, there's something for everyone. I highly recommend going when you have more than a few hours to spend.

Sharon Wright

Wonderful art gallery with wide range of exhibits. Free tours and talks with knowledgeable guides

Donald Rodgers

Beautiful museum with mangy exquisite prices. Well worth a visit

Mina Mir

Was visiting my parents in CT for the holidays and decided to stop by the Wadsworth. Was pleasantly surprised by the collection of surrealist art. Little museum that packs a big punch!

Jacob Camp

Fun museum with tons of exhibits, had to rush through but saw most of it in an afternoon; discount tickets for students

Janice Jacui Robb

One of the worst museums that I have ever been to

Adriana Scully

Have always loved coming here. The best is coming for events and they have a ton of deals for Hartford residents.

Gabriel Kalel

It's got art and a good variety of it. What more do you want? If you like looking at cool stuff and being in a good environment to do so then go here and spend an afternoon.

cydonie brown

The oldest art museum in Connecticut. It is worth a visit.

Louis Leo

Small but EXQUISITE library. The standouts are the hard model roman figures throughout the library. It possesses a very old, but charming feel. Very cozy and strict quiet for reading and work.

Ruth Book

The Wadsworth is a real gem! They have great student rates (and it's free for UConn students) and they have a really wide selection of stunning pieces!

Donna Howard

Great selection of art- everyone is sure to find something they enjoy here.

Alan Taylor

The Wadsworth Atheneum has a very nice display of donated creatively decorated holiday trees for several weeks during the early holiday season. Don't wait to see this; it will be over and gone before you know it!

Joseph Janiga

We went to the Easter Jazz Brunch at the Athenaeum and they ran out of food before we got to the buffet table. No ham, no sausage and cold French toast. The buffet was not replenished. Not a good experience ...............We received a refund.

Tami Carter

The staff was very helpful the exhibit of hopper was very and In lightning. Very pleasant time we had at the museum that day.

Vicki Mitchell

Visited recently for the art and florist exhibit, where area florists design an arrangement to complement a painting or other artwork on display. It was beautiful and added an extra touch to our visit. They also had different choral groups performing throughout the weekend , and they were very good. It is easy to park in the Front Street garage and walk to the museum, where they validate your ticket in the gift shop and we only paid $3.00 to park.

Julie Christianson

America's oldest art gallery? Yes. There are some amazing pieces of art that you wouldn't expect to find in little old Hartford here. Also, go for the festival of trees, it's a wonderful holiday event.

blckwndr

Makes for a great lunch trip. Its big but not so big that you dont see everything. Chill staff.

Mike Ellis

They have a mummy.

Loveen Davis

My Graddaughter received a art. Certification there and one of her classmate and many more at her school
