Good modern art collection, great gifts in gift shop. Deceptively smaller than it looks like from the outside, you don't need more than an hour more »

The collection here of the Bechtler family is fairly small but carefully collected curated. The building is quite lovely. It's a once in a lifetime chance to view works by the modern masters such as Picasso, Chagall, Miro, Lichtenstein, and Leger. There is a parking lot across the street that charges $5 on the weekends, but there is a problem leaving it - it took me 20 minutes with not much traffic. Try to get something on the street.

OMG such beauty!! I HIGHLY recommend taking advantage of their monthly free night lovely art in a wonderful, dedicated Staff. You have got to participate in their art bingo game; made me pay more attention to displays. I also really appreciate their outreach to incarcerated folks and the developmentally challenged!!!! Every one needs ART in their lives.
