Amazing museum for picture book art . If you want to see familiar art in its original glory, stop in. Also there's a fantastic in-house library and art room .

Great for kids and for adults. Beautiful building and a shop where you might spend a lot of money! Loved it.

This place is a gem! Small, but art is amazing. Staff was friendly . Kids loved the art room where they could create their own art . Auditorium and movie were great!

Wonderful, magical, inspirational. Kids could have spent all afternoon in the art studio . But be aware - no on-site food outlet, so bring your own picnic .

Raenell Nagel

Some original/limited edition art for sale in the gift shop . One of my favorite museums to date!

If you want to learn some mamaloshen, pick up an antique Yiddish beginner's textbook, rather than a reprint in the bookstore. It'll have that old book smell and probably some notes pre-written, too. - Ari
