The Phillips Collection

The best display of a Calder mobile i've seen in years - in a stairwell, two light sources: you get to see the shadow effects he is brilliant with & you can view it from different height hand angles!

Apart from the great collection, they always have great activities and attractions for children. My 9-year old daughter loves this place!

Best art gallery in DC, it's just shame some of the finest paintings in collection can't be photographed (for us from the other side of ocean whose memory of it will unavoidable fade with time).

Great collection, small enough to see everything. Was glad that it was free on weekdays, so had a delicious lunch in the cafe

Located near Dupont Circle in a neighborhood , this modern art museum is an oasis away from the crowds on the Mall . You can enjoy the fine selection of art without feeling rushed.

Wonderful gallery in Dupont. America's oldest museum of modern art . You'll be able to get through the whole collection in a few hours.

Duncan Phillips and wife Marjorie turned this Georgian Revival Mansion into a stunning museum . This collection features breathtaking works by Van Gogh, Matisese, Monet, Picasso, Renoir , etc.

Amazing collection. So much to see, and I appreciate that there aren’t hoards of children since this is not a free Smithsonian.

There is some truly outstanding artwork here. The Queen of England's portrait is well worth a sit and a ponder.

Sundays 4pm concerts (Oct-May) $20 ticket included admission to museum . Sold out concert today, best reserve in advance. If missed, catch Monday 9pm on WETA 90.9 FM.

The museum is nice and they have a good collection. Also is worth to see the temporal exhibitions .

The new Tryst Cafe at the Phillips Collection is absolutely wonderful (check out the patio !), and you don't need to pay admission to go.

Great little gallery near DuPont circle. Nice stop if you like modern art .

SUPERB collection! Every first Thursday of the month, they are open later and have special events ...definitely worth checking out!!

This is a stunning and infatuating collection of art . The cafe is also quite good.

Admission fee is free except weekends. Small but wonderful collection.

Cute museum . Nice to visit. Near a cool neighborhood with good restaurants .

Be sure to walk up and down the stairs as much as possible. Softest threads in the District!

A wonderful collection and great special exhibits .

Very nice collection and the gallery is really nice.
