Great place to tour if you are in Downtown, for a small museum it has a good selection of local and international artists , the temporary exhibition "Southern Accent" is a cool visual.

Beautiful new addition to the classic old museum . See a Rembrandt, Picasso, Warhol and other great art . Go on Sunday for free admission . Parking is available on site for $7.
