This is definitely worth going to. Usually they exhibit surveys of a single artist . It's nice to intimately see what one person has done.

Jonah Freedman

There's a really interesting exhibit there right now but maybe be wary of bringing younger kids to the downstairs area. It may be a little seriously explicit for them. Really fascinating though.

Very manageable space allowing for interaction with the art .

Jim Belt

Not impressed. Was there when one of the exhibits was closed, and they only have a few rooms. $5 admission is too much compared to the much bigger Nasher Museum in Durham. Read more
