I would recommend skipping the actual museum and just walking around in the park outside. The cherry and spoon is iconic and you can walk on the large bridge that goes over the road. While the park area is cool, the actually museum is pretty weird. I didn't understand most of it (I'm almost 23, so not old). I almost wanted someone to just explain some of the stuff to me because I wanted to understand. In general, many things were just bizarre. They had a whole exhibit called The Body Electric and it was trying to show how people and electronics combine, among other things? I just found it creepy and I didn't connect with it. They also showed a video of a lady demonstrating kitchen supplies? And they had old tv's everywhere showing random stuff. It also didn't take us that long to get through everything and it was $15 dollars for each of us. The MIA (Minneapolis Institute of Art) is the best place ever and it's FREE! Overall, some things were cool, like the giant chalk room, but it was weird and I wouldn't recommend it. The feeling of the place was just off.
