Advanced Visionary Arts, LLC. Review

Fabulous! Totally engrossing, funny, fun, interesting, so many great exhibits

Loved the museum! Very friendly staff, great unique things to see love their little gift shop which is very affordable filled with great things to purchase

Went here for a wedding, I was in the sculpture barn, And it was nicely laid out, The museum was open for the guest so that was very nice to. I suggest if you are getting married or having a party you do it at the American Visionary Art Museum.

Was a great place to visit and experience an individual artist vision through exhibits. There is a large mirror glass egg that separates the other building full of hands stuff and cool floats. Parking was accessable during the day, overall viddy cool!

Great museum, wonderful gift shop, highly recommended.

A beautiful museum and collection of eclectic works. This is our Baltimore just as much as the not so savory realities. So much beauty and creativity, one can t help but admire it all.

Hands down my favorite museum and I've been to many... the stories coupled with the incredible creativity are inspiring and uplifting.

They have a good interesting collection of contemporary visuals arts.art store I think is the best seller.

A great place to spend a quite evening. This is a hidden gem near Baltimore harbor. Cheap entry tickets with so much to explore in the museum. Definitely must visit if you are in Baltimore.

I really enjoyed this place. The artwork was unique. The best part is that you can read about the artist and how some of the artwork was developed.

A fascinating detour into the convergence of art with alternative states of mind. Well worth it.

This place was full of awesome and unusual art. There are mediums for everyone - paintings, sculpture, mixed media, 3D art and much more. Highlights included the model of the Lusitania done in toothpicks, paintings that came alive with 3D glasses and a beautiful beaded dress. The gift shop is also cool. There is something for every budget and every age. Very nice!

I absolutely love this place and don't see how people live in this city and don't support the local culture.i can post all the pictures possible but it won't amont to the same experience. My children (14 & 4) came here one Saturday afternoon and have to come back. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable which definitely helped in the experience. We had personal take aways from the museum. My preschooler loved the interactive exhibits and my teen was into the environmental parts. I loved inspirational sections.

very cool souvenir shop lot's off free to see sculptures outside, I am not an art guy but it was nice, especially the pezo collection that was displayed

This museum is incredible! The cafe on the 3rd floor was delicious and the museum itself was so inspiring and of course creative. Top notch energy!

Beautiful venue for a unique wedding! Only minor flaw that it was really drafty with doors opening and closing throughout the evening to bring in catering supplies. Since it was 37 degrees, might have been better to bring everything indoors in advance.

Love the gift shop here! The museum is great and well curated. My only complaint is that they have a strict policy on no backpacks and no place to securely store one if you're carrying one.

I love love love AVAM. Its all things bright and beautiful if a little weird and made out of trash. Great for adults, great for kids and leave plenty of time for the greatest museum gift shop of all time.

Wonderful! Nowhere to park that is wheelchair friendly, but worth it. I only got to see about half, and loved it.

What a unique place!!! The exhibits are amazing and the giftshop is a blast!!

The absolute best outsider art museum ever! The gift shop is not to be missed!!

MUST GO TO WHEN IN BALTIMORE! Very neat and such a cool spot! Within short walking distance from Inner Harbor! The Museum consist of two separate buildings. The first building has 3 floors with a restaurant on the third floor!

Great displays cool classes. Also a great place for an event you my have to plan.

Best art museum ever been too! Coolest souvenir shop have the weirdest things!

There is no place quite like this. What happens when you mix manic intensity and powerful vision with the time and effort to execute works of art that anyone else would not have the patience or talent to execute? That's visionary art, and you will find a great deal of it here.

In addition to the regular permanent collection, changing shows offer a glimpse into wild and wonderful minds coupled with amazingly skilled hands. Imagination comes to life.

The museum also boasts a deliightful cafe, Encantada, on the top floor. Excellent food in an equally imaginative setting.

The Side Show gift shop is also a prize -- lots of wonderful stuff, and a selection of candy from your childhood that will bring back memories!

Great place with relevant exhibits. Family themed and fun.

Baltimore gem. Don't forget to visit the store. You are up for a big surprise.

Love this place. Not too far from Inner Harbor and some interesting art work. One of the many gems in Baltimore.

Wonderfully fun and innovative artwork. Highly recommended if you're in the area. Literally right next to Federal Hill and the Inner Harbor.

Awesome museum! I loved one of the other building with all the kinetic sculptures.

This was my first experience at this museum. Amazing how anything can become art.

Amazing collection of phenomemal pieces. Beautiful building, excellent restaurant and whimsical gift shop.

Super cool. So many different mediums you would never think of using.

I love this museum. Prepare to be mind-boggled, indoors and out. Bring the kids and the grandparents--there will be something for everyone and lots to talk about at the end of the day.

The restaurant on the roof patio is great! Had such a blast hanging out there having brunch!

Art by people who are compelled to create, not by posers who want to be famous. A real inspiration.

The exhibits are very special, with family themes, warm and touching stories and content, very interesting and worth visiting.

The best museum in MD or the DC area! Always interesting artists and exhibits. It's worth the trip alone to see the Cabaret Mechanical Theater automata in the barn. If there's a school field trip there it can get a little crowded, but still worth it. We need more places like this in the world.

Don't forget to visit the basement... you will not be disappointed.

Something different and entertaining to see. The gift shop is alot of fun itself

A lot of cool installations that you probably would never have imagined existing.

This is an amazing museum of "outsider/folk/isolate" art. It's an incredible array of works on display: from tiny embroidered scenes from a man that taught himself to embroider while he was in prison using thread from socks; to a huge Victorian era steamship made entirely of toothpicks. Be sure to check out the mechanized art in the annex 2 doors down.

We also ate at the cafe upstairs which was fairly pricey for what it was... and they didn't even have Almond or other alternative milk for my coffee.

Gift shop is a must- I spent some cash there and love everything I got.

Awesome! All the exhibits are amateur artists and almost all recycled materials.

Small and not family friendly. A lot of exhibits, though "visionary," were not impressive. The artist biographies were more interesting.

Highly recommend seeing the fantastic variety of artwork. Eat outside in the restaurant and enjoy the water view.

Interesting art pieces. The two buildings were small and tickets overpriced for what it was.

Beautiful of a lot of history, cultural events for the whole family,
The store is GREAT!

Best art museum in Baltimore, imho. Sure, you have to pay. But it's an experience like no other, so it's well worth it.

It was a wonderful experience, weird art, but I loved it.

Attended my son's wedding there. Great venue for special occasions. The art is awesome.

Simply perfect! I recommend everyone to visit here once in their life!

Art like you will see no where else. Nice reuse of buildings.

This is a museum of Visionary Art, defined as "work created by self taught individuals whose work arises from an inate personal vision that revels in the creative act itself." The works you will see may be much less technical than a traditional art museum, but they still make a deeply emotional connection. The museum is very well curated, telling the stories of the artists and their vision. A delightful place to spend a few hours.

If you like funky things to do in Baltimore Maryland, this is the place for you especially if you are into magic, spirit and Halloween... Sp ky...

Great museum and even better venue for the wedding I attended.

The American Visionary art museum is equal parts Cabinet of Curiosities and compellingly wonderous Museum. Not only are the exhibitions top-notch and thoughtful the interpretive and didactic materials give insight to the artist's history, materials, echniques, and methodology. A gem.

Great collection of outsider art. Lovely views of the inner harbour. Has fabulous facilities for rental.

Great outsider art. Tremendous gift shop. Kinetic sculpture derby.

Unique collection. Not really a great place for younger children who like to touch because many of the installationso are within their reach.

A weird, but cool collection of art. If art museums aren't your thing, this isn't a "normal" art museum and you might find yourself enjoying this one. Multiple galleries to view each a little bit different and unique. Check out the gift shop for chotchkies all of all kinds!

Next to Wynwood Miami a very creative ppace. While in Bal D More don't miss it.

We go to side show the gift shop inside the museum love it.
