Very interesting collection, beautiful surroundings, and very friendly staff. You should go when you have 2 days to go to both museums, the one on Randolph Rd., and downtown Charlotte. You buy 1 ticket and it's good for both locations over 2 days.
This is really good museum. This has lots of verity from mint to pottery to arts and many more. There are 2 mint museums in Charlotte one is near to uptown and another one is this one on Randolph RD. Every last Sunday of the month there party in park with free entry to the museum And live music with food trucks.
Really enjoyed this location more than uptown! Lots of European and Asian art. Will go again. Highly recommend!
Party in Park was a very nice experience for my family during our weekend road trip from Atlanta to Charlotte
The museum was really nice mostly art work and pottery from different countries. I enjoyed the outside more then the inside.
Nice place to visit. Small but has a lot of art and history in the art. On Wednesdays from 5pm to 9pm its free to everyone
Breathtaking pieces. Highly recommend for art lovers. And the staff here is top-notch. Definitely was a wonderful visit.
The staff in the front is so helpful and sweet nurtured. The museum shop is packed with gifts that support the art. We really enjoyed this museum! and will visit again and bring guests with us next time. Beautiful Art
Our first visit. The ladies up at the front are very helpful and sweet natured. The museum shop is packed with neat gifts that support the art. We really enjoyed this museum! Exquisite art and a very neat area for local Charlotte artists to exhibit their work. There was a lovely wedding being set up and we got to witness a groom have his photos taken. This place is definitely a must see!
If you're interested in ceramics (Wedgwood, Meissen, Chinese, etc.) then this is your place. I learned about the interaction between contemporary Japanese and North Carolina pottery. I loved the many rooms devoted to Inca and Maya cultural artifacts. Didn't know that what the Spanish conquistadors called Peru was most of South America.
