This museum is a very small one with two floors. The first floor is very impressive with its painting but the second floor I was not as interesting. The second floor is mostly filled with artifacts from Miami. Cool but not very impressive. I may have spent an overall hour in this museum discussing the art work on the first... More

I was very, very disappointed with this museum. being situated in a big city like Miami, I expected more. I hoped to see works of great Latin artists or maybe a nice display of Latin culture-inspired works of art, but , instead, I saw random, poorly-selected works of random people that had no right to deserve the title "skilled artist."...

Having visited a few other places in Miami (and walked away terribly disappointed), I've learned a few things. 1. Because you never know what to expect at the attractions down here, you should try to go to the attractions at a time when they offer a discount. (I believe second Saturdays of the month are free at the Miami Art... More

This the worst art museum in a major city I have ever been to. Don't assume that because Miami is a big city that the art museum is a cultural asset. In fact, the place is as small as the art museums in the small cities in West Texas where I am from. Moreover, the museum is 1) in a... More

There were two floors, one was all modern art and the other was an exhibit of Tamayo, an artist from Mexico. The modern art was average, as was the Jan Dibbets photography exhibit. Overall I was very displeased as the parking across the street was very expensive ($9 for one hour; we were out in 20 minutes). There were no... More

When I was at this museum, there were two temporary exhibits, and the rest of the museum was closed because another temporary exhibit was being installed. I enjoyed the Lowe Art Museum in Coral Gables much more. However, since the Miami Art Museum has very few permanent pieces, how much you enjoy the museum will depend on what exhibits happen... More
