Kyle Geissler

Nice collection. New and spotless museum. Nice space.

Angi TH

Interesting art pieces by many local artists

Jane Lazarevic

MOWA has great exhibits and events. Worth checking out.

Graheme Williams

You must visit. Fabulous place.

Carl Utecht

It's a must see, right off the Bicycle Trail. The art work always is changing. The local artist exhibition was refreshing. I paid for my membership years ago and am still surprised when I go.

Mike Brodzeller

Loved the chalk art! First time in the building and very impressed and pleased with the exhibits. Enjoyed the photo art on the second floor. Will definitely be back!

Pugs (Daniel Seung) Pugliese

I love that there's this gem tucked away in West Bend! It is such an incredible gift to Wisconsin.

Ron Klassen

Well done; nice building, but a tad underwhelming. Kinda pricey for a small museum -- you don't buy tickets, you purchase a membership. And, no Dani Herhartz work to be found.

Colleen Beisbier

Great museum in our little town. Good parking, close to downtown restaurants and shops.

Eric Prochnow

Beautiful museum with weekly events and programs, including a Saturday morning free children's art project. The inside is very open and white giving that minimalist and modern feel. The art changes often, and features local artists of all types.

A truly awesome and hidden g e m

Jennifer Coon

Love the chalk art fest! Such talent is brought together.

Kathy Salm

Nice hidden gem of a museum. They have permanent collection and special exhibits. The special exhibit we saw was Wisconsin Dells that featured photos from steroscopes as well as photos from the 1970 s. Very enjoyable. Their permanent collection has art from 19 th and 20 th century, also enjoyable. With your admission of $15 for one and $25 for two you get a year membership with unlimited access, invitations to exhibition opening parties and MOWA news delivered to your door. Free parking too.

Ashley M

A small but incredible art museum. Well worth a visit

3ME Events

Andrew Dionne

A good staple to downtown West Bend.

Alan Anderson

Great museum. I was very impressed

Robin Mastera

Peter Potje

Was blown away by the different exhibits here! The range from blown glass and fine drawings to the largest oil painting I've ever seen, with life size figures. The clothing exhibits and furniture also wonderful. I'll recommend this as a wonderful few hours for anyone!

Andrew Lim

Not sure what to expect from this. Not a lot of variety. Have to go often when they change the display to make it worth the membership price

Barbara Janiszewski

Just the best place to visit in town.

Susanne Soppe

First rate. Trek exhibit is fantastic.

William Chase

A treasure on West Bend.

Reid Johnson

Here for Art and Chalkfest. You my second year so it will get back her and better. Food vendors, art vendors and chalk art. Plenty of parking.

Jessica Birkholz

Craig Larsen

Awesome art

James Huycke

We recently attended the Dylan poster exhibit which consisted of very large tapestries of select song lyrics, and a live solo acoustic performance of the recent Nobel laureate's music. The museum features a very wide range of art connected to Wisconsin, including furniture, sculpture, traditional forms, the avant garde, even the whimsical. Very highly recommended, with a two for one drink discount following events at the Dublin restaurant just down the street.

Jim O'Keeffe

Wonderful facility with a fabulous collection of Wisconsin art by Wisconsin artists. Occasional lectures in the main atrium make it a destination for learning from top local and national speakers. Beautiful modern building and grounds on the banks of the West Bend river.

Irene Magdalena

This was a great place for students to learn about artists from Wisconsin. We even got a special visit from Mr. Tom, one of the photographers himself! The kids were excited and the tour guides were friendly.

James Blessington

A hidden gem. The art, the architecture of the building that houses it, and the overall vibe. Get here now, it will not disappoint.

Kathryn Burg

We had a lovely afternoon-♡♡♡

Kathy Hyman

Nice

Elizabeth Muellenbach

A gem in West Bend.

It's a drive out for us city folk.but worth an afternoon. Love seeing Wisconsin artists and the exhibits are thoughtful and interesting. The building is rather cool and we went once for a kids program and it was unbelievably generous and fun. (I could not believe how.many supplies they had!) Walk.over a bridge into.downtown West Bend.

One of our favorite spots in West Bend. Great children's programming. They really make the art museum experience friendly for all ages. My children love to see the new exhibits each time they rotate through.

Karl K

It is a wonderful building and the focus on Wisconsin art is something that a native Wisconsin citizen may identify with.

Tom Loco

Michele Schindler

Lawrence Grinnell

Very pleasant place, interesting exhibits. We had a nice time.

Ann Lindsey

Quite expensive to get inside, so we left. There is an annual fee for membership and no mention of a day charge. At the old location you could visit for a donation. Things don't always change for the better. They're missing out on visitors with their high fee. This is a small town. My rating only reflects my disappointment in the fee, not the exhibits. Which I have no idea about. There is currently a bicycle display that can be seen through the windows.

Jet Gramma

Very nice. Loved the members exhibit!

Lisa Harmony

Alastair Samuel

An unexpected place to find such a shrine to culture and creativity. A striking building design and lovely gardens catch your eye and draw you in. Membership is inexpensive and worth it, especially if you have children, as there are many high quality art classes for them. The gallery is great, and contains some fine samples of the work of Wisconsin's artists. Gift shop is nice too, but pricey. Still, if you buy art you are supporting the art community, which is great.

Kathy Daly

Nice place for kids. Need to go back spend more time. Plenty of parking.

Mike Lemke

Really cool bikes and nice local art

Tony Thorn

Unique

heidi brown

Enjoyed the Chalk Drawings, the Artist are amazing

amber knippel

Unique building and unique wedding venue! Loved all the windows letting in so much natural light. Clean bathrooms too! Would have been a 5 star, but I feel they should move some of the art exhibits when hosting weddings to prevent any mishaps....by not doing so is asking for problems.

June Karnitz

Grew up living by the original Art Gallery, so visiting here always reminds me of home. Always enjoy the permanent collection, but like the current shows when I can get there.

Ron Schmidt

Great day to experience some beautiful works of art at the Art & Chalk festival. Works of art created on the pavement by extremely talented artists

Dale Jones

Chalk Fest was FUN ... Already looking forward to the Next One ... & Entry to Art Museum was a BONUS !!!

Went to an art fair. Outside art displays, jewelry, food, and arts and crafts vendors. Great art exhibits inside this charming museum located in West Bend. Helpful personnel, wheelchair accessible and parking adequate. About 15 minutes from Milwaukee, but well worth it!

Love the idea of local artists being there. Wonderful place !!

TheJustinDredd

Emily Turner

There are always amazing exhibits. The workshops for kids are outstanding. It is well worth the membership. For Three+ it is $50 for the year. You can bring four adults and an unlimited amount of children. It is wonderful time for everyone.

Scott Golimowski

Great art in West bend!! It changes its displays regularly so there is always something new to see!! The new building is fantastic!! You can also buy some art at the gift shop!! I go there to see my favorite Carl Von Marr paintings. When you walk up to a humongous painting that took him 3 years to paint. See the details and shadows. The expressions on the many faces. You will understand!! A masterpiece!! He also has another painting so realistic you'd swear you could just walk right into the scene. Please go see it for yourself!! When you do. You will want to come back again and again!! Buy a membership and support the art!!

Caleb Horst

Lots of good mons here

d ritmanich

taylor devine

It has a wide variety of Wisconsin art. The location is nice and the building is beautiful.

Joy Wills

Awesome chalk art

Jody Davis

Great program. Maybe our school caught the tour guide on a bad day but she did not seem very patient or kind towards or 4th grades. Negative and abrupt redirections are nlt a good solution for children in a new environment. If she had a more positive attitude or even just smiled the kids would stay too warm up to get and be more respectful. Otherwise- great museum!

Christine Prelesnik

Very nice to see local artists' works! I'm always inspired to get creative myself after seeing other people's visually depicted stories. The museum itself is beautifully designed to accomodate some huge works of art. I enjoyed it there!

Linda Larson

Great showings. Very clean. Friendly staff.

Robert Snow

Always interesting...inside and out! Loved this past weekend's Art and Chalk Fest. Great art effort and super people to talk with.

Exceptional museum featuring Wisconsin artists. Besides their collection, they have excellent temporary exhibits, this summer, 2018, has a fascinating exhibit of Trek bicycles. MOWA is a wonderful blend of art and architecture.

TROY dunaway

Great place to visit along the river, chalk festival was a great time.

Vitamin_Bleach

Nice and clean

Steve Roach

One of the first pictures you see are from an artist that obviously takes lots of drugs. Of course I loved it. The best artist was Carl Von Marr. He was really into Sci-Fi and you could tell. He had a painting that had a priest vampire (the flagellants), another had a zombie baby (Summer Afternoon), and my favorite was the one with Anakin Skywalker from Star Was the Phantom Menace (The Adoration of Christ). You can see my pictures on here that show the close-ups if you cannot find them. This place has some really freaky stuff and I absolutely loved it.

lisajoy5678

Sandy Michalski

A beautiful museum that is wonderfully laid out. The membership is a tad expensive but it's understandable given the non profit nature of the organization.

Anne Stadler

The building itself is a work of art. The views of the river are mesmerizing. The galleries have a plethora of Wisconsin artists. The gift shop is filled with Wisconsin made gift items. Lots of children's programs. Conveniently located near several restaurants in the West Bend Downtown area. A fun day trip with family or friends.
