One of my favorite places in the area! The exhibitions are always good with great works of art. Dean Mitchells paintings are incredibly beautiful and I consider myself lucky to been able to see the this time. There is always something new to appreciate here.

Friday, Nov. 13 2020: While the museum is technically still open, most of the exhibits are currently closed. You can visit the cafe, gift shop, one section of one gallery, the rooftop and the house. At no charge. The staff is very nice, and I look forward to returning when theyre fully recovered and reopened.

Great staff and a wonderful experience. I will return as soon as I am able. I will be sure to allow more time and I hope to be able to donate some time and effort in the near future. I felt welcomed by everyone that I spoke to.I was not only able to view the art created in the past I was able to see the art currently being created. I hope that I can contribute to some of the new work in 1 way or another.Thank you one and all

Nice mix of local artists, not just pottery. My taste leans towards abstract so this was an enjoyable time.

My husband and I were on a short two day getaway visit at the Beau Rivage on our way back from visiting family in mobile! We are not gamblers; it was more of a time out for us; we love to explore the local attractions and the museum with the Frank Gerry buildings with its unmistakable unique characteristics caught my attention right off the bat! was excited to go visit! Sadly we waited till the rainy morning of our last day, and it was closed we learned, as we stumbled into the staff meeting! I was heart broken but then this fantastic young lady offered to give us a tour!!! I was elated and so touched by her kindness! She didn’t mind getting rained on holding her umbrella mostly over my head! What a kind soul!The exhibits are beautiful of course! The beauty of the the complexly intricate building is the most rewarding experience! I have been a fan of Frank Gehry designs (my favorite the dancing house). Thank you Ms. Erin! I am ever grateful to you!

My husband and I absolutely loved this little museum. We spent 2 hours here. Dont get in a hurry. Talk to the artists, instructors, and docents. Make sure you visit the gift store. Lots of local art work for sale. Remember, buy art from artist who are living, the dead ones dont need the money!

This is a good hours worth of viewing. They had several artists buy three

The staff are friendly and informative, the Moran, Miller and Ohr exhibits were stunning, and the architecture is so fun. Unfortunately, not all of the buildings are finished, but wed love to come back when they are. Really great place and right on the beach!!!

Magnificent display...accurately displayed history for motorcycle advances thru the years. Mad potter was amazing!

If you love are this is the place to be whatever you do if you see a sign that says feel free to take a look around the pottery studio dont because your not gonna be able to get in the door is locked

I ventured out here just hoping to see some different art. They ended up having some really interesting artist spotlights, and some very helpful staff. The cafe inside the main building has some nice treats. The architecture of the museum is fantastic. The gift shop spotlights local artists and has some really genuinely great work for sale. I stopped by just hoping to enjoy some art, but ended up chatting with staff and having a great time!

The exhibit was really interesting but the staff are very busy.

The staff and facilities are really nice, and the architecture is beautiful. The primary exhibit for George Ohr is really interesting and the permanent exhibit explaining Biloxis de-segregation was well put together. There is a dynamic array of exhibits and art with pottery, painting, photography, and glass blowing being a few. There is a full ceramics facility with full staff able to handle multiple classes and open studio hours daily. Highly recommend this artistic gem!

Very interesting history not only only about Mr. Ohr bit about Biloxi in general.Important to note that this is NOT Georgia OKeeffe museum

Ohr was an amazing potter.

Great experience. You wont view pottery like this anywhere else. Each piece is a unique treasure. Was surprised at how many different mediums of art were displayed in several unusually shaped separate buildings . Enjoyed shopping in the gift shop. Found restored old house to be very interesting. Highly recommend that you check out this museum.

Wonderful place! We went to a motercycle showing of ventage bikes on a Sunday afternoon.place is also a Pokemon stop.

My son takes art lessons here and we love the instructors!!

I found the two visiting art exhibits to be in appropriately political and offensive. It doesnt take strength to be proactive and politically correct. There is no courage in their message. Art should be open and inclusive - and beautiful. These exhibits were not, on any front. Would the Ohr-OKeefe present my art with a philosophy which opposed these messages? I bet not. I will not be back.

Went to see Steve Princes work. Very intriguing and intricate pieces. A true delight!

The pottery is beautiful and its amazing how much they have, considering how much was lost in Biloxi during Camille & Katrina. The entire staff is wonderful, always making you feel welcome. Best is... they offer fun and interesting clay classes ranging from 2hrs to 6weeks. Ive taken a few already.

A unique gallery! Thoroughly enjoyed the varied shape, sizes, textures and colors of Ohr pottery. The outlandish folklore surrounding the man was as interesting as his ware.The work of Ferguson had many wonderful political messages regarding environment and civil rights. The museum itself is a work of art with its many levels and shapes. Highly recommend this as a must see in a visit to Biloxi!!

Fun place to visit.

Wonderful building indeed !! And surrounded by centuries old trees which have witstood many a Katrina, the museum is a vivid testimony of hope for the future. I could only see the outside (closed on Sunday) but to me it is a vibrant example of what a museum of today stands for. A real masterpiece in itself, honoring the art of the potter. Worth exiting the I-10, if not for the horrible casinos ...though they did contribute their money. Must be seen absolutely !!

My fiancee and I booked the beginners class at 50 dollars. I asked questions about glaze options that Natalea forwarded to Charlie Mabry. He never bothered to answer that email. We went to the class. It was fun and something I had wanted to do for a long time. We paid for 1 extra piece. Charlie said about 3 weeks to ship. A month and some days later and after having to inquire about it the pottery arrived via USPS. The box was not damaged on the outside but the contents were mostly destroyed. The packing was worthless just worthless. The first piece of pottery I ever made is just a pile of chips. I put a lot of effort into making a nice cup my 1st time. I feel ripped off. I would not be able to reccomend these folks at all. Take the money then showed us you dont care. Just worthless.

Ill need to return , parts of the exibit wasnt open due to some repairs , what was available for walk through was super interesting and educational. Thank you. I want to go again with a pass available to all other interesting places on the coast.

Theres not much art inside. I would just walk around the buildings and take some snapshots.

Not a single work from George Ohr on display. Only two small buildings open. A few lame pieces from a local casino. A random historic home from everyman and a few cool wood carvings.

The staff here are very friendly. I enjoyed the Art exhibits. The Katrina exhibit was very moving. You would spend 10 dollars on a burger at McDonalds why not spend the same or less on a visit to a good Museum.

Amazing plan on going back for date night!

Great pottery studio. They offer great classes and have a great open studio hours.

Id rate this museum on a scale of 1 to 100 as a minus 1,000. Very bad. His pottery is crap. What bothers me the most, is Katrina money was used to build this piece of garbage. Huge waste of space in each room. Huge waste of talented peoples work could be here or historical objects related to Katrina. Being from Iowa, I didnt know anything about Katrina. Reading that there was some information about Katrina at this museum; I was anxious to view the display. It gave me nothing but mostly newspaper clippings. Really?

Very interesting local history, perfecr for knowledge buffs or those interested in unusual art.

Not many exhibits right now. Renovation and moving in a new type of interesting exhibit. Discounted price for discounted exhibition.

From the front reception to the curators listening ear, a must see attraction for anyone interested in art culture and history on the Coast.

Love this place! Relaxing. Take a class with Charlie and you will see what I mean.

Great way to take a break from the casino scene. They were remodeling so missed out on an exhibit and ticket price adjusted. Nice collection.

Worth the time to visit. Very interesting works of art are usually on display.

Nice art. Pretty small so doesnt take long to look at everything.

Not impressed.. really just think of the cost of admission as a donation to some cause.. could have put a 20 towards something else. sorry.. dont usually leave negative reviews..

Cant top the other reviews except to say take the detour and visit this museum. Buildings. Art. Art for sale. Visit this amazing place.

Lots of local art presented. We enjoyed the mix of newer artists and legendary artists.

Most of it was closed, very little to see. Tickets were half priced. Interesting buildings.

Not really an art museum. Its more of a Katrina Aftermath museum. I appreciate what they were trying to do and its worth the money to preserve this part of the Gulf Coasts history, but it isnt worth the money if youre expecting an art experience.

It was awesome! Loved Katrina +10. The staff make you feel welcome.

Needs some work. Very little exhibits. Gift shop was great and staff terrific.

The staff here is amazing. Not only do they know their materials well, they know the Gulf Coast. No matter what is in display, this is a great way to spend an afternoon.

It was cool. The motorcycles where the best part

Ok, My sister is studying art history so I took her here cause this is her thing. We loved the pottery and the story of OKeefe! But there isnt much else. I like the idea of the Katrina exhibition but there isnt much there. The buildings are gorgeous! Along with the location. I believe that over time this museum could grow into something magical. $10 per person. Discounts for students, senoirs, military, and others.

I wish they had more to look at we went to three buildings I believe it was $16 total or maybe it was $16 per person I dont remember I personally would not come here again or recommend anyone but the staff is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable

Great value and interesting exhibits. Most of the staff was friendly. A few of the buildings had a very strange, off-putting, mold smell.

I enjoyed my visit to the Ohr-O-Keefe Museum. George Ohrs pottery was amazing. I was disappointed that all of the pods werent open, but there were many other exhibits available. My favorite part of the visit was talking with the potters in the workshop. I didnt realize how many classes were available. As a local resident, I love it that so much happens at the museum.

Any one in Biloxi should check it out and George Ohr pottery is amazing

A great place to visit. My girls, 9 and 13, loved it.

Helpful staff and very knowledgeable..Very small but you can spend an hour or 2 looking at everything..

For the area it real didnt give good cultural stuff for what it costed

Looks awesome

On the beach.

Not much to view when we went. Nice architecture though.

Great exhibits! Beautiful buildings.

Was ok. Half priced due to most of the exibits being down. Not much to see during a cloudy/foggy day during a holiday. Not imoressed.

Great place to visit when on the Gulf Coast. Check for current featured artist.

Beautiful example of Gehry design. Go for that more than the museum itself, which isnt much.

Nice option while in Biloxi. Beautiful pottery and glazes.

Beautiful art gallery, lovely venue for a wedding.

Staff really knowledgeable. Not a large museum, but growing. Not all the African American art was BY African Americans but ABOUT African Americans.

George e. Ohr is an American iconoclast of DIY arts and crafts pottery. His topology art is 22nd century. Buy a brick! Support the museum!

Half the exhibits where closed and was charged full price, to look at some damn pottery, all by the same artist. You can hardly call this a museum, its more like a tribute.

My family loves the classes offered here.

Inspired me as an artist to do better!! :)

Exceptionally nice everybody were nice knowledgeable and helpful

If your not into pottery then dont waste your money.

Wonder piece of history and ceramic art!

Great little place

Kool place

Couples pottery was fun

Used to be called the George Bush museum

Ok

Amazing exhibits.

Enjoyed it love the history

A bit of a walk but it was fun

None

Great Pottery, local history

We love the studio and art classes

Not worth the money unless they finish all phase or add more stuffs

Fantastic art and hospitality!

My favorite part is the Katrina part

Not very many exhibits. Small. Not very wheelchair/stroller accessible.

Specially designed artistic building

Good place

Cool buildings, art was a hodgepodge

SO SPIRITUAL

Claustrophobic & not interesting

Not a lot to see or offer. the Katrina display was poor. Just a few photographs and you could listen to the news reporters. I have no reason to revisit.

Wonderful museum devoted to an interesting artist.
