I went with a group of friends and had no clue what I was getting into. The setting is very open and casual, but I left changed. Taking the broad themes of prison, illegality, and incarceration and presenting them in such a wide variety of mediums (some paintings, some movies, some music, comic books, walls to scratch on, last meal sculptures) made them not only digestible for someone with little background knowledge, but also deeply interesting. The art in the bottom floor was just as amazing, and the intricate detail in each piece made me feel like I could get lost for hours. I recognize that the exhibits change around, but I have full faith that every next ones are gonna be just as wowing.
The museum was interesting. It's more for adult rather than children. However, if you do take the kids along they have interactive books. The kids can work through them as they learn about the art work. Probably will not return with my kids though.
This museum is pretty small, but the exhibition I went to see had a lot. By that I mean there was a lot to read (even thick comic books) and several videos to watch. It took a while to get through everything despite it not being particularly large. I would say that it was a little too much to stand and read, and it would be nice to start a video when you approach it, rather than missing large portions before it restarts.We also took part in an ornament making event. They had a nice little room downstairs for it, and it was a good experience.
Staff is great . Depending on exhibit kids might be entertained. Very organized. Its a great stop if you are going museum hopping. Very interesting museum. Getting to Learn about different cultures is always fun. I highly recommend we need more young people visiting museums. I tell you just drop it and you will be surprised on how much you learn
Really depends on the exhibit. The staff is great. A lot of times they have fun art projects for kids.It is a good idea to check the exhibit with the staff before you bring in kids. Sometimes the exhibits are not appropriate for young children.Free to get in but donations accepted.
