Great museum to go as a family. There is a beautiful walking trail that goes around the museum.
We went to see the exhibition of the French Posters and the impressionists. We enjoyed it very much.
The building is lovely...a wedding was held here. But it is my own opinion that art music media or drama that is dark is the opposite of joy. I choose to reject the current exhibit of negative b&w message. I feel it is Degas-bage my own word based on much of degas death art) and life is too beautiful to focus on death or disease.
The smith is a solid university museum, though its total gallery space is smaller than one might expect. Their permanent collection of impressionism is the highlight.
They were closed due to covid but even outside they had some amazing pieces.
Beautiful grounds to walk on a nice day.
The Alfonse Mucha art collection was extremely impressive.
Cool staff and great descriptions of the works
Great spot if youre a PokemonGO lover. Great spot if youre an art lover. Great spot if you just need a spot to walk around. Staff can be kind of aggressive, but they probably deal with college kids all day so it can be expected.
Free entrance and great exhibits
Very disappointed in the museum would be a kind appraisal. Empty rooms, empty spaces, empty halls. We went on a Saturday and initially thought it was closed. So few people. We had lunch at the little sandwich shop and were the only customers.A suggestion: since the weekend is “dead.” Why not invite local artists to display and sell their works in the empty halls. It would bring more people into the museum, increase the income of the gift shop and the sandwich shop, and make use of the empty spaces during the weekend, and give local artists and art students a place to display.
Good spot to watch the sunset.

Very picturesque. Beautiful facility. Its well kept and lovely. Art rotations and displays keep the museum interesting for locals. Looks like a great place for special occasions, too!
Everything was just great indeed
Its lovely to go to not just to go to an event or look at the art inside, but its great looking at the sculptures outside and walking/riding bikes around the pond.
Live lunch time concerts + good food. Catch it once a month. Different types of music. A great place to meet with friends.
The outdoor exhibits and sculptures are always so fun to see and experience!
This was a total waste of time and money. There were only three galleries open, and one of them was nothing but plastic bottle caps strung on pieces of wire and tacked onto the wall. The other two were apparently from local artists who were severely unaccomplished.One of the galleries had pieces that the artist had completed at various ages in his life, but there was hardly any change from what he drew in elementary school and the drawings that he produced as an adult. It was interesting to see that one of his pieces referenced Mothra, but the museums description of this famous monster was inaccurate.I almost asked for my $5 donation back on our way out.
Good little museum, free to walk around. I really liked the traveling exhibits. I look forward to going back!
Beautiful interior
Beautiful and serene. Great place to destress.
Beautiful building and grounds, but much smaller than expected.
Love seeing the exhibits here. Its kid friendly and clean. The staff have always been helpful and polite.
I go to walk along the lake and enjoy the interesting pieces on the outside but I usually stay and read for awhile in one of the several cool and quiet spots on the grounds.
This is a first-class facility. Regardless of whether you like what is currently on display, the museum provides a wonderful atmosphere in which to view the exhibits.
I went to the Third Thursday event where the poet Arthur Sze read some of his poems. It was a great event and the building is as beautiful as the art inside it.
Part of My Soul. Visited in 2003 with Shelley Martin A Rural Studio Architecture my Gf who was killed in a wreck at rural studio
Awesome place with ever changing local art
They have good artwork. Nice place for a casual date
Adequate parking. Great for seeing different exhibits and walking with your dog or children. Entry is by donation of your choice. Very clean and well taken care of. Pokemon Go hot spot.
This is my favorite museum! It is classy and every time I go there I learn something new! #WAREAGLE #BAW
Beautiful exhibits and lots of cultural experiences to share,and all completely free. The bunny guys are my favorite, but the entire thing is a great,educational experience.
They are really hateful to visitors, and have chased most people in Auburn away. It is a public and free place to be but they really act hateful unless you are an event and they wont even let so many of us do an event unless it is like a wedding. Sad.
Lots of great art exhibits. Close to campus. Air conditioned. Handicap accessible. Relaxing and enriching. Fun by yourself or take the whole family. Also outside youll find a large artist pond and several walking paths. I give it two thumbs up and 5 stars!
The staff was very polite, but the exhibit was less than appealing. Not what I was expecting for it being in a college town.
Went there for work.
If youre in Auburn during the week, this is definitely worth a visit. The cafe is also very good.
Great peaceful experience exhibits are hit-and-miss in between the larger shows so the smaller shows sometimes are kind of boring but the in-house collection is amazing
A wonderful public resource for students and families! A true treasure in Auburn!
The atmosphere here is so pleasant and the employees are so polite and friendly
Theres art inside and outside. Great path to see art outside.
Had a small but nice collection of local art today. I will return to this museum.
Beautiful museum and a lovely place gor an event.
Nice womens exhibit.
This museum is a treasure to be found in an otherwise artistically-challenged college town. The JCSM hosts lunch events featuring live music every Thursday and hosts guest speakers in the museum auditorium at least twice a semester. Interesting exhibitions, a nice permanent collection (some of the best of which isnt on display), and free admission. The grounds are beautiful, and locals use the pathways to exercise and search for Pokemon. And if youre really, really lucky, you might catch a glimpse of the pond turtles sunning on the shoulders of the water bunny sculptures.
This is great for an hour or two to kill on a weekend, and they have interesting lectures to attend some evenings. It is a wonderful day activity if you stay in Auburn and do not want to travel far. Their exhibits rotate often enough to keep it interesting.
Nice, small museum. Various educational programs available on a weekly basis. Jazz lunch and evening events are awesome on the patio. Great place for lunch too.
A wonderful museum. Quite nice collection. Changes often.
I like walking here, they would rather I walk somewhere else.
Everything was so nice and elegant
The grounds of the museum are very well kept and are excellent for walking around at all times of day.
Modern and Beautifully Maintained.
The place really makes you think about what you think you know. My favorite thing about the park was the statues of the men dressed as bunnies outside on the pond. Oddly enough, the men on the pond look just like me. Or maybe I am projecting?
It was great, but there was some weird post-apocalyptic group of Pokemon go players in front of the place, and stopping their cars in the middle of the road. Very odd.
I love the lunch time music series.
Gorgeous museum, filled with an abundance of interesting art pieces. Definitely worth a visit.
Theres always something going on here. From film showings to live music, the museum has something for everyone. Would highly recommend to anyone whether they enjoy fine art or not.
Though small, this museum has a great variety of exhibits. Their outdoor exhibits are creative, playful, and fun, and the new Audubon exhibit was well done and large scale.
A beautiful museum, one of my favorite places to go in auburn. theres also a walking trail around the pond
The acoustics in the hallway are much better now. Not as much echo. Enjoyed it greatly.
Great venue.
A great small local museum. The exhibits are awesome.
Not enough people take the time to stop and check this place out. Very nice venue.
Really enjoyed this great place to go with your family

A beautiful sight to see. This is a great location to host events
Nice place to go on a sunny day
Always new works to see and great area for walks or runs
Excellent fine art museum and great location for a special event. Staff are lovely and accommodating.
Great art, event management can be a little iffy. Go to the events, for sure, just call ahead and double-check maybe, sometimes their posters and pitches oversell their actual plans.
Beautiful place worth a visit every time youre in Auburn!
Great place to play Pokemon go!
Really good place to visitEnjoyed trip there with son and grandson.
Very beautiful place for peace and tranquility.
Really nice area both inside and out! You can walk around the pond and see more sculptures. Filled with Pokemon go stops so more crowded than usual lately.
Great Thursday lunch events and interesting art exhibitions.
Small exhibit, but nice atmosphere. Great for walking around.
A fine regional museum with modern and traditional works. great cafeteria.
