Outside was dirty and looked like it needed some clean up. The variety of art was low and lacked diversity but I did enjoy natalie Arnoldi and her work.

Wonderful museum. I was actually shocked at how nice it was. I wasnt expecting much because I was judging it based on that its in Bakersfield. So sorry I judged and so happy we came

Smaller than I thought. Quiet, peaceful, and a beautiful place to picnic in the garden.

Nice art museum ,, very nice landscape around the building.

Nicely curated exhibits with a local flavour. Quite limited in the number of exhibits - I was in and out in half an hour. Probably not worth the $10 admission

Visited with my daughter and her fiancé as a possible venue for their wedding. The museum is beautiful; the grounds were also very beautiful, very green and well maintained overall. But the gazebo needs a little bit of a refurbishing and paint, and apparently there was a mishap with a prior landscaper where some bushes and vines were affected. But they are coming back nicely. Would have been a great wedding venue, only the time frame was off for us.

Had time to see everything and enjoyed viewing the paintings.

High quality exhibits that dont disappoint. Its not a big museum, but the galleries, programs, and events pack a big punch. Go for Art After Dark!

Front desk worker is very nice and informed us well about what was happening there

Its a nice place to visit if you like art

Great spot. Kinda hipster but easy to blend. Every 3rd thursday is a must!

As my first time in an art museum it was nice. The gentleman at the front counter was very informative. Walking around I did not feel overwhelmed. It was like a breath of fresh air inside & out.

The museum is beautiful. Coming here was a great experience.

Wonderful variety of viewing opportunities. The gardens are peaceful too

Always a great place to visit. You can walk back to the gardens in back and sit in the gazebo, something I like doing for lunch. They have good events regularly, and interesting exhibits.

Beautiful venue and the staff are amazing to work with

No problem with the museumsHOWEVERI Purchased a family membership and was told I could bring my 5 list grandchildren who where written on the card by the worker who sold the membership to me.When I brought my 5 grandchildren to the Laurie Brock museum on 8-1-18 I was told only 2 of them were allowed at one time....FraudThe reason I purchased the membership was so I could have time with all of the cousins together. I asked about it at time of purchase and was told, no problem, just show the card. Lies...Very disappointing.8-1-18Just asked to speak with a supervisorI was informed that 2 adults and 6 children are allowed and the girl at admissions made a mistake.

Beautiful museum with an excellent staff

Staff knew everything about all the artists and was very friendly. Very nice pieces as well!

Nice musiem pretty scluptures in the garden

Love this place....had my wedding here

Bakersfield natural museum of art has been here for many years and ive always wanted to go and see whats the history of our town. We have Pioneer Village and its fun. Im looking forward to seeing this one. Im getting some shark teeth so i can make a necklace

Love the art and that this town is changing to have more art for our community.

Really great place to see art made by people from Bakersfield! A little small... but a good reason to get downtown. I only wish there was more variety.

Beautiful venue. Have not been inside the main building, but attended a wedding here in the garden and it was an excellent choice, especially for Bakersfield.

Very quaint, but not a huge selection of art work. More of a gallery vibe than a museum.

Overpriced but worth it to support Bakersfield art.

Wonderful art exhibits. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Many art exhibit landmarks are located at various points throughout the downtown area of Bakersfield, Ca.

We stopped without any expectations as we were passing through-just wanted to see what art was happening in Bakersfield. Wow, were we blown away by the great art and curation. A nice mix of local and international artists. The different exhibits meant there was something for every taste. You can easily spend a couple hours and come away refreshed!

We went to The Bakersfield Museum Of Art and spent about an hour looking at the paintings and sculptures on display. They had a couple of special exhibits and some permanent ones as well.

Free admission Fridays!

Great museum to showcase art in Bakersfield. I have seen some very lovely exhibits here and its also a wonderful venue for special occasions

Has a nice collection of art. Didnt get to go into the garden but the inside had a large collection. They usually have a monthly special which is nice. Small entrance fee making it even more reason to go.

Ill be very honest,I love the artwork but I dont ever want to go back there to visit due to an employee,Juana Martinez,who continuously takes photos of me without permission and doesnt care whether you like it or not . She seems to be more on her personal cell phone taking sneaky pictures of people than doing her job .I dont mean to talk down about her ,only her actions and that is why I cant go there to support the museum.

Good shady place in Bajo where you can see some Art. Local highlight...Marion Cunningham miniatures:. Iconicism I call it.

Not a large city museum, but is very nice for its space. Enjoyed our hour there.

I found it to be very interesting people were friendly. Would go back again.

The art after dark events can be fun

A small well designed museum

So glad I saw the Society of Six exhibit before it ends later this month ;-)

Too awesome

Its a good place to view art but I wish it were bigger.

Nice, clean and people are really friendly.

Amazing art from local artists; never disappointed when we visit. Kind and friendly staff.

It is very nice art, but once for me is enough. If you are close by, you should stop and look for yourself...

It was an interesting way to spend an afternoon. I wish it had been bigger.

Amaizing selection of art
