Always love to visit. Beautiful building in beautiful setting. Rodin sculpture garden on one side. Anderson modern art collection on the other. All free to visit and ample free parking at the weekend. One of my favourite places.

It s a thrilling experience. The works of Auguste Rodin are just mesmerizing, dazzling, and the museum also is in the heart of the Stanford University campus. It s a 20 minute walk from the Palo Alto Transit Center, but the sidewalk itself is an interesting experience. You will never know when it is ended.

Phenomenal University museum. The Rodin exhibit is unbelievable. (Over 200 of his pieces!) The temporary exhibit of Ansel Adams and Edward Weston is great. All of the exhibits were enjoyable. The building itself and the overall presentation was as professional as any museum I've seen.

The museum is gorgeously designed with various collections. The Rodin reproductions are beautiful, and the Home artworks are thought-provoking. Reopening admission is currently free but you have to reserve tickets and arrive on time to maintain Covid-19 protocols. Prepare to spend from 1 to 2 hours in the museum if you want to check out all the exhibits and take beautiful pictures.

What a treat! This place is tucked into the Stanford University campus and is full of permanent collection artwork spanning from the early Egyptian and Roman Empire all the way to the modern exhibit (Ends 1/6/2019) of Andy Warhol's photography.

The outdoor Rodin sculpture garden is a must-see. The indoor rotunda housing "The Thinker" is incredible to see up close as it is rather large.

The Andy Warhol exhibit was the highlight of the museum. With so much photos, contact sheets, enlargements and subsequent prints/silkscreens which lead to Warhol's iconic works. The celebrities depicted in his photos are a great time capsule of those times (70's and 80's) and NYC nightlife.

A must-visit location.

Did I mention it's free. Tours are free as well.

What is there to not love about this art museum that has the caliber of MoMA or other majors, yet tucked away in a relatively quiet area? This museum is under pronounced and less known, thanks to it being within Stanford, yet it is a sanctuary for many locals and visitors. Don't think this is just a pop-up display style of museum in a university. It will take you hours to see everything and truly appreciate what it has to offer. Plan enough time for Cantor. There's so much to see and feel. And when done, roam around the campus and enjoy life, culture, and the meaning of existence.
