Reviews of Wexner Center for the Arts (Museum)

Kim Moore

Great space to explore and see amazing art.

Jacqueline Sampaio

Good movie in a large and amazing room.

Deborah Latham-White

The Wexner Center is a good artistic venue. Diverse exhibits, a movie theater that screens independent films, plus an on-site restaurant.

Tod Bowen

Beautiful, amazing spaces displaying a wide and rotating and variety of art.

TradeMark Gunderson

A world-class art destination, every time.

Keith Warren

One of the best contemporary art venues in the country. First rate music, movies, theater and visual art exhibitions. The current Guggenheim show "Storylines" includes several artists who have had shows at the Wexner Center. I've seen everything from Picasso to Andy Warhol to shows that explored the relationship between technology and contemporary art. Truly a remarkable place.

Wish they did more with this place. It doesn't seem to have a defined purpose. Could be the next Moma if they wanted it to be.

David Matthews

One of the premier contemporary art centers in Ohio. The exhibit and preferences are consistently high quality and of world prominence. The structure itself still challenges people to seek a greater understanding of their relation to the arts. Top site on the OSU campus.

Amy Kepple Strawser

Top-notch venue for modern and contemporary art on the Ohio State University campus

Saul Bleaeck

An important fixture of the central Ohio arts scene, this center lives up to high standards of contemporary art albeit visual exhibition, cinema and/or music. Even though it's located on the Ohio State campus, there is a good mingling of students and community members. Quality of shows is not to be confused with pretentiousness; staff is helpful and pricing is modest all things considered.

Zachary Schreckenberger

Stellar place for arts of all kinds. The Heirloom Cafe & bookstore are great, too.

Attended OSU & I still love the Wexner center

Bruce Moreaux

Absolutely beautiful building with amazing helpful staff. Talked to one of the security staff there and he educated me on a lot of the different aspects on the building.

Naomi Sakuma

Love it!!!

Sharon Unrau

A good idea

Eric Zimmerman

You can get in free on certain days which is nice. Its kind of small but they have a good variety of art that rotates. You can also get free guides that walk you through and then let you explore.

Fabio Ricardo

Great place

audrey galat

A wonderful place that creates a rich experience

Sam Berry

I have been to several art museums but have never been treated so horribly as we were here last night. We were out celebrating our anniversary and felt incredibly unwelcome. From the guards following so closely behind us that I could reach out and touch them to the other guards who yell at you for pointing, it was such an uncomfoetable experience that we just left. I cannot believe I paid money to get treated like a little kid who can't be trusted to respect anything. I will never be visiting again. There are many art museums in Ohio that have better Arr and treat guests as they should: guests.

Bryan Jellick

Accesible, acomodating and highly educational. A valuable center for the arts!

Benjamin Graber

Great performance space

Brandon Ferguson

Came here for multiple comedy shows, which may not be their foray but the place has no concessions or drinking fountains and the staff in not very friendly. Would much rather see a show at the Ohio or Palace

Autumn Ewing-Bowsher

Small, but great exhibits. Parking in garages nearby, wheelchair accessible, cool gift shop and cafe inside.

Autumn Theodore

While I love Columbus Museum of Art, I visit The Wexner Center much more frequently. Exhibits are always interesting, the space is beautiful, and I love visiting Heirloom cafe for a bite to eat when I visit The Wex.

Cecily Taylor

Good conversation walk through museum.

Brian Spain

Great exhibit

Josh Blair

I enjoyed my experience here.

Brett zumFelde

Always a great exhibition to be enjoyed. Definitely worth going to see what they have on offer every couple of months. The gift shop is a must as well.

Sue Overturf

Nice for OSU graduation!

Liz A

Artfully Artistic

Ed & Sherry Peterson

Great place to see the work of artists that exist or existed in our world. Quiet place to take in the exhibits. I would say that if you go to plan at least 3 hours if you take in the filmography media as these can run up to over an hour. Parking is available on campus near the oval off of high street.

Luke A

Rotate artwork a couple times a year, a must do if your a student since you get free entry. I saw some of the Picasso pieces in 2014.

Džemaludin Alihodžić

Spacious venue and close to 2 parking garages for easy access.

C. Moss

An amazing accent to the growing cultural hub that is columbus, ohio. From art to private screenings of Oscar Nominated Films the Wexner Center gives visitors a well rounded experience no matter the time of year.

Excellent, great pieces love it here.

Love the movies through the year. Rare and classic (art) films. Nice to see them on the big screen.

August Whitley

Found one of my favorite artists' books here quite easily, great collection, lovely spaces for talks given by visitors, cute little coffee shop inside

Love the seasonal art exhibitions

Steve G

Love it!

The entire family loves this place! Always a great place on rainy weekends.

Ben Owen

The Wex helps make life in Columbus various and weird.

Charles Boyles

Always something new in their collection - also a really interesting building/space

Margaret Foren

I have been there many times, and the food is consistently delicious, however the service is far less than spectacular. I have had quite a few bad experiences there. The food usually takes a long time, whether it is for there or to-go. On one occasion, the cashier greeted me, and then proceeded to carry on a conversation with a co-worker and ignored my questions that I was asking her. It was extremely rude and unprofessional. The manager (an older lady I believe) can also come off as very rude at times, and sometimes is assuming and offensive. But like I said, the food is good.

Josuha Anderson

Fresh. Open.

Kristi Kloss

Excellent opening for Inherent Structure, Spring abstract painting exhibit

Derek Reed

A great show and a wonderful exhibit space!

Teen Bean

Extremely lovely shows with a great mix of work. I went here for a fiber show a few years back and walked around for hours. I was amazed to see some of my favorite artists pieces like Sheila Pepe, Do-ho Suh, Sheila Hicks & Ernesto Neto. It was a breathtaking show!

Phillip Camick

Great show!

Andrew Springsteen

The curating was disappointing as was the content. It's a cool space and there are some interesting things there. The bookstore had a good selection.

John Ridge

Like the rotating exhibits vs. a fixed collection. Wexner personal art collection exhibit was excellent

Mary stevens-behrns

This is another good art museum in Columbus. They have rotating exhibits, some are better than others. Last summer they had an exhibit featuring the comic artist Dan Clowes creator of "Ghost World." Really cool to see his pencil drawings up close. Another exhibit I really enjoyed featured Brazilian artists. Some neat stuff. A recent exhibit this past May featured Fiber Art. I'll be frank I didn't really like this. Just was not that impressive, but to each his own. Needless to say, this place is pretty great with changing exhibits. There's pretty cheap parking nearby. If you are a student you can get in free with your college id. You can be a student at any college, not just OSU.

Leannette Lyles

I love this place my kids do too we had a lot of fun it's funny and the people are nice...

Robert Riley-Mercado

A great place to see art exhibits and movies. Just make sure to find a seat up front as the seats aren't staggered well. A tall person in front can ruin your night. The cafe is not the best, but it is equal to most found in similar venues. Book store is great.

Tinola Mayfield-Guerrero

On the campus of OSU, a must if you are in Columbus...great art...inspiring...

Super progressive space with edgy programming.
