Detroit Institute of Arts

This museum is incredible because of the large collection. You can discover any time of art with paintings , sculptures , ceramics...it is very educative . Must see: murals by Diego Rivera.

Plan your visit, take your time (4-5 hrs) here is a mural painted by Diego Rivera. The only one outside of Mexico. All sections are very good and not too crowded . Sit down and relax!!!

The Diego Rivera murals are worth the price of admission alone. Spend some serious time in that room.

As you go from gallery to gallery you will be constantly amazed. This museum is a true gem. Self guided tours , docents to help you and of course, the Rivera Industrial murals .

The Diego Rivera mural alone makes it worth the trip! If you are there during normal business hours, check out the murals at the Detroit Public Library just west of the DIA across Woodward.

The Detroit Institute of Arts displays an impressive collection of African-American art , in addition to its holdings of American, European, Asian, African, Native American, and Islamic art . Read more

You have to see the Diego Rivera Gallery yourself. The photos not only don't do it justice, but they tend to just show the labor-positive aspects. The art shows the positive and the negative duality.

Give yourself at least two hours. The exhibits are fantastic

Amazing artwork. Nice gift shops . Love the little courtyard for food. The middle ages/renaissance section is like stepping back in time. And special exhibits are always great.

World class exhibits and the architecture of the building itself is amazing, same with the scarab , library , Detroit Engineering society buildings. Just an icredible area and Art Institute.

Wonderful art museum ! Could easily spend all day here. There is something for everyone here. The museum is comfortable , beautiful, and intriguing.

The wide range of art in a space that will amaze you. Add free admission for tri-county residents and $7 parking the DIA becomes the entertainment bargain in the Detroit Metro area.

Fantastic collection of many different types of pieces. The staff is friendly and the building is huge. Make sure you have a lot of time to fully experience the whole place.

I could play here all day and still not see everything! The DIA has so much to offer. It's a great museum and definitely worth a visit.

the art that is there is wonderful and the architecture of the building is great also

Rivera murals are great and contemporary collection quite good. Sad to see this museum struggle for attendance.

Pet the donkey! The only piece in the museum you're allowed to touch to show the damage our grubby little hands can have.

Awesome art museum , the café is outstanding. Kresge court is eclectic & has good music . There's way too much to this place than meets the eye, do your research!

this is one my favorite places to go to. I have been there over 10 times and i will go another time or maybe even more. they offer alot of events , plus their gift shop is pretty sweet!

Fantastic examples of medieval art and do not miss the Diego Rivera murals

Beautiful exhibits , impressive building, and an amazing café in the middle… what’s not to like?

Lovely museum to explore. Make sure to see the Rivera murals and the medieval galleries !

A phone app that will allow membership payments and options to donate will be nice. As well as keep people updated on the latest events held there with participant options. Just a thought.... -Vseay

Cool place, but lots to see, so make sure you leave time to check things out.

Founded in 1885, the DIA's collection is among the top 6 in the US. In 2000 the DIA opened the GM Center for African American Art in order to broaden the museum 's collection of African American art .

A fantastic art gallery . It displays art and provides signage in a way that helps you savor art even if you aren't educated in art appreciation or history.

This is a Detroit gem!!! And if you are a Wayne, Oakland, or Macomb County resident, entry is free!! Please check out our art collection ....it's fantastic

Diego Rivera mural is overwhelming in scale and relevant in content to Detroit's industrial history

So much to see at the DIA and don't forget about all the special events for children. The Detroit Institute of Arts is one of the best Art Museum 's in the World.

Located WRIGHT in multi cultural DeSTINATIONS DeTROIT HISTORICAL MUSEUMS DISTRICT this is a must visit priceless Michigan attraction

Check out the exhibits on the first floor, they are easily missed because they are smaller but sometimes they have some really cool stuff there.

Great collection and various programs and i like its american paintings especially.

The photography section is small but oh so nice. Stop by Rivera's Court. I enjoyed that possibly most of all.

Did you know? The DIA is the second largest city-owned museum in the country , with a collection of art valued at over a billion dollars.

An impressive and diverse collection.

Be sure to spend some time taking in the Rivera Court murals . You'll notice something new each time.

The collection, staff and volunteers

Great museum . Do not miss the Diego Rivera murals .

The Diego Rivera murals are pretty breathe taking.

Be sure to stop by the romantic Kresge Court for a bite to eat!

French and English art is a must-see! African American art is interesting too!

Loved the Roman Era art , as well as the Greek pottery.

Diego Rivera Court . Amazing.

Star Wars costume exhibit . Need I say more?

Decent collection, their modern selection has more impressionists than traditional modernism. Great cafe and low entry fee.

Amazing collection! Go for the Diego Rivera room!

The GM Renaissance Center is a great place to go for lunch or dinner after visiting the DIA: http://www.gmrencen.com/Home.axis
