A fantastic museum in Uptown Charlotte, easy access and great exhibits. Very reasonably priced as well. Try to spend a moment to take in the fantastic paintings and pieces they have!

Quite an interesting place. It not only has modern art pieces by various artists but also an exhibit about the influence of modern art on the architecture of the building, particularly the clay shingles. The prices are low and you can easily spend a few hours. This place is definitely worth checking out. My favorite work is certainly the living piece on the first floor.

I enjoyed the tour that I was given. The tour guide knew a lot about the artwork, and was both enthusiastic and entertaining. Lots of interesting sculptures and paintings. Ask about the horse sculpture on the upper level!

The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art has an astonishing collection of modern and contemporary artists, fitting for this landmark city of the new south. This Charlotte museum invites you with large, airy, galleries. These are stuffed to the edge with extremely valuable work of art. Here you will discover any semblance of Andy Warhol, Picasso, Degas plus a dozen more.

I went with my husband and three children. We had a great time. The staff was very accommodating . I would definitely recommend this museum. The Art is Amazing!

A great place to visit for an hour or so for your trip downtown in Charlotte. They have a great display space upstairs which is currently modern tapestries. Some beautiful pieces on display and the sculpture floor was my favorite. We parked at the parking structure across the street and walked easily up the stairs and across the street into the building on the weekend for $5 parking. There is a balcony on the sculpture floor too check it out! Alberto Giacometti sculptures in bronze were my favorites.

Really cool museum with a neat collection of art. The staff are very friendly & accommodating (they held/stored my carry-on luggage for me + they also have FREE lockers available). Also, definitely check out the gift shop for some cute - and affordable - souvenirs!

I enjoy the architecture and the exhibits at this gallery. There is a small, but diverse permanent collection as well on the second floor. The third floor has a small exhibit and the largest floor is 4. The staff always does a great job with the exhibit layout and the descriptions are really informative. I always leave having learned a lot. I tend to visit on Bank of America Museums on Us weekends which offers free admission to Bank of America customers.Staff is nice, taking pictures is encouraged, restrooms are clean and beware the gift shop is expensive.

Top 5 of the most boring things I’ve ever done. Are you trying to look creative and sophisticated by bringing your date here? DON’T. You can literally see the entire place in 10 minutes. I’d say the best thing at the museum was the kids drawing table.

The museum is very small but it has its masterpieces mostly avant- garden works (not very famous and famous authors). Nice paintings of Juan Miro and some series of Picasso works, but we all know that Picasso was such a fruitful author that every museum has his art.

Such a cool museum. Cant wait to come back for an evening out and to see the new renovations!

I love the art here and the mix between modern and futuristic is beautiful.

You can easily spend 2+ hours on the 4th floor (main floor with exhibits) if U Love contemporary art AND military +1 get in for free YAY

Pleasant staff, nice atmosphere, and a diverse collection but some facilities were not well-maintained.

Visited this place only one floor out of four is worth money and time spend. The radio was a good company for explanations to some extent as not every one of the are were self explanatory. Most of them did not have enough narration on the walls or around other than who pained and when. Did not feel worth money spent after the viewing the other floors.

Tons of wonderful works, all well-displayed and great floor layouts so nothing feels crowded.

Cant say that I understand modern art, but I appreciate the experience. Best part for me was the background information provided about either the artist, the inspiration or some relevant tidbit that helped put things in perspective. My daughter and I made an afternoon of it on a weekend during one of Bank of Americas Museums On Us. We plan to visit other museums as well. Thanks BofA and thanks to the Bechtler family.

Neat experience. Very nice destination spot for the art lovers.

Very nice museum. It has a gift shop on the first floor along with sparkling clean bathrooms then 3 floors of revolving exhibitsWith the top being the largest

Do you like finger paintings??? The finger paintings here were incredible. So many different finger and hand marks and smudges. The colors swirled together on the construction paper. They also had exquisite paper snow flakes. The skills that goes into these works of art is grueling. One must fold a paper in half one way then in half a second time and cut sections of the folded paper out with scissors. When the masterpiece is unfolded you will see the radially symmetrical paper snow flake. Oh how marvelous. Oh how exquisite!

Nice museum and free admission for military and their family.

Amazing architecture! We very much enjoyed Picasso’s works. Fantastic variety of art, classical pieces, modern cubism, everything! It was worth the time and money!

I guess an interesting place. You have to really love art to enjoy something like this. I myself cant enjoy lines that appear as if they were drawn by a a mill drunk 1 year old and then thrown against a wall starting this is art. Although walking between the legs of this statue out front is what gave it the entire 3 stars. Even though I didnt pay for entry (and Im glad I didnt) but still saw all 4 floors. Walking between those fine glass legs was the best.

Must visit the Tapestry exhibit.

Nice , small , great for a quick outing . The staff that was there to answer questions while viewing an exhibit was great and very informative. She really made the experience stand out . Finding parking wheww . There is a place across the street good walking distance but the price wasnt great and finding parking suckec

I really enjoy that the art is on 4 different floors and its easy to navigate. They have art by Warhol and a few other famous artists- definitely worth checking out!

Very impressive art collection and exhibitions. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of recent works on display (past 5 years) and the building is worthy of a 2hr visit on its own.

Straightforward exhibits with excellent docents. The tapestries are moving and rugged. The Picasso pitcher ought to be turned 45 degrees like a diamond with respect to the wall so we can see all of it.

So beautiful, small but beautiful. The biggest floor is the 4th floor. Its definitely been on my list of places to go, so Im glad I went.

There are three floors but not too many pieces. French, Swiss, German, and Italian artists were featured in the gallery. We used Groupon for the tickets and saved $8.

Nice architecture, visited on all-star weekend in Charlotte. I was impressed and liked the layout of the building

The collection here of the Bechtler family is fairly small but carefully collected curated. The building is quite lovely. Its a once in a lifetime chance to view works by the modern masters such as Picasso, Chagall, Miro, Lichtenstein, and Leger. There is a parking lot across the street that charges $5 on the weekends, but there is a problem leaving it - it took me 20 minutes with not much traffic. Try to get something on the street.

Spent a lovely hour here looking at the diverse artwork presented. Teal, who was working on the third floor, was extremely welcoming and supremely knowledgeable with questions I had about the artwork. You could tell she was passionate, which made the exhibits more dimensional. Loved the personal touch and would come back when there is a new exhibit!

The staff was extremely nice, and art was good. Thats my favorite artwork there.

OMG such beauty!! I HIGHLY recommend taking advantage of their monthly free night lovely art in a wonderful, dedicated Staff. You have got to participate in their art bingo game; made me pay more attention to displays. I also really appreciate their outreach to incarcerated folks and the developmentally challenged!!!! Every one needs ART in their lives.

Some great items there, some are above my head but nice

What a cool place! Their 3rd Friday event was engaging and interesting and a great free and fun Friday night out. The staff were friendly and helpful and the while experience was great! We will definitely be back!

Waste of money. Go to DC instead and look at their phenomenal free museums. Even if this place was free I would only give it 2.5 stars. Too much boring geometric art.

Yall didnt know i was an art croissanter did you. When i look at this piece I feel reel deep. In this picture i feel the truth. The mirage of colors makes me feel. I just really feel it. Yall other art croissanters know right?

We were there for a corporate party. It was a nice venue & we were able to browse a small part of the museum. I was not impressed by the art, but what we had access to was limited.

Not alot to see but very informative and they have a nice selection of events including film night.

Wonderful place. Best part is that you can create your own art.

Very nice museum. Great AC in the place too!

Great building, decent artwork. Wasnt too into the hodgepodge of works from the last 10 years called Ten, but heres to the next exhibit.

Great way to spend a couple of hours

Nice museum. Amazing staff!

Very Entertaining with plenty to see in a small space, we loved the location and passed thru during pride weekend and me and my fiance had a wonderful time in the uptown area, Plenty to see as well as places to eat. Youll have a Great time and worth the visit & Dont forget to take a Pic under the Chicken out front.......Enjoy

The collection here of the Bechtler family is fairly small but carefully collected curated. The building is quite lovely. Until December there is a fantastic exhibit of large textiles. Its a once in a lifetime chance to view works by the modern masters such as Picasso, Chagall, Miro, Lichtenstein, and Leger. There is a parking lot across the street that charges $5 on the weekends, but there is a problem leaving it - it took me 20 minutes with not much traffic. Try to get something on the street.

Surprisingly small for such a growing metropolitan area, but good collection and I enjoyed the exhibit that was there when I visited - tapestries by well known mid-20th century masters - and very affordable. A standout piece of architecture in the otherwise bland downtown by Mario Botta. A well-spent $10.

Wonderful collection of modern art. We went during Jazz fest. Great jazz artists,local food and drink. Loved it!!

A really great museum, but felt a tad too small. There were a few exhibitions that I felt needed more space to breathe. Because of the shape of the museum, tall and on the narrow side, there were less rooms per floor with actual museum content. But thats my only complaint-- the museum is quite beautiful.

Always enjoy the different installation at the museum. The staff is always friendly and informative.

Really beautiful museum. I dont love modern art so sometimes i like the exhibits and sometimes i dont. I do love the museum gift shop. They alwayd have unique gift items.

Okay, like I go to art galleries, and I understand this is smaller but man -- it was $9.65 (USD including tax) and if it hadnt been for the exhibit = Nomadic Murals: Tapestries of the Modern Era (April 5 - December 1 2019) which displayed tapestries from Picasso, Lichtenstein, Calder I would have been pretty mad (im still pretty mad) the ground floor, is just the store - general art gallery store, the second floor holds some designs and pictures of interiors of other galleries across the world and some architecture drawings (see it in 2 mins tops, 3 if you read) The third floor has maybe four-five displays of abstract art and some bronze, small sculptures (which to be fair are cool) but I mean, if the exhibition isnt cool, i wouldnt bother and I sure as heck wouldnt pay $9.00 for entry. Legit a waste of money (not time) but waste of money for sure. Id recommend to just go across the road to the MINT museum and pay an extra $5.

4th floor is the best and biggest. Start there

Some very interesting pieces of art in this local art museum, including finger paintings, truly unique work.

Quite a gallery considering its one familys treasures! In comparison to other art galleries Ive been, this one is on the small side; however, I loved it. The price is well set for its size. The curators did an excellent job of providing written information on the artists.

Excellent show of modern art! Well worth the visit!!

A friend and I went for the new Tapestry exhibit. It was excellent. There was a very knowledgeable docent on the floor the day we were there.

These people have such a glorious collection of art in so many mediums! I love it here and could spend a whole day marveling! If you’ve really got an itch to scratch. Visit here on Wednesday afernoon, then go grab a bite and come back to their neighbor at 5 or 6, the Mint for a free entry to the permanent exhibit.

It’s a ...very good museum...not the MOMA standard...but very good.

Awesome the art is spectaclular

We had our first date here it was amazing

Beautiful building, neat gift shop and interesting art. Only negative is that the collection on display is small. Lots of Giacometti and European artists.

This museum offers great jazz once a month. Kick back with your favorite beverage and jam. Love it.

As this museum was built upon the Bechtler familys collection, there is an intimate feel to the curated art. A good mix of artists and media. Not as large as the Mint Museum, but since they are across the street from each other, its easy to do both in an afternoon.

It’s very nice, very abstract art, not really any realistic art, but other then that it was fun, we got in for free cus of technical difficulties but the customer service was very nice. But the museum is kinda small. So if you just wanna walk around somewhere definitely go in there.

Eh, quite a small collection, really for a particular taste. To be honest I am more a fan of classic figurative paintings or figurative modern work so I suppose Im not the ideal audience. However, I think it was still worth checking out and am glad I went but wish there was simply more on view.

Start at the top! And work your way down. Beautiful museum and everything u need for a date.

A great atmosphere to roam around in.

Really nice exhibit very interesting building.

Art/pieces are beautifully displayed. Great lighting. Not just a museum but an experience. Had a great time.

Very nice place to spend the afternoon with the family

The quality and quantity of the art here is okay, but the Mint Museum right across the street is superior in almost every way.

Definitely a unique museum experience. The organization of things was a bit confusing, but I liked the way they used the space on each floor and the different wall colors/framing was very interesting in a way that more public galleries/museums dont explore.

What a great show these folks put on! We have been going since these started and now make a 900 mile trek each year to be here for the lovers show. If you want to sit get in line early! Ziad can really blow!

The exhibits were nice, but it was very small and simply didnt connect with me. Front desk staff are very kind, though!

The second floor is under construction, making the visit much shorter. The collection is amazing, especially the tapestry exhibit.

It was okay. We went to two art museums that day. This was my least favorite. It seems large but didnt have a whole lot. My group was done with the place in about 15 minutes.

Lot of new shows . The permanent collection is also fascinating.

Nice venue for our French wine tasting!

Nice galleries but I was disappointed with the atmosphere and staff. Children were running around and screaming. Three staff members on the top floor were supposed to be stationed throughout as a reminder for guests stay quiet. They were standing together talking somewhat loudly— it took away from the experience.

Wonderful space to see wonderful art.

Will not go there again. I was informed that I could not take pictures there because of the focusing beam on a Sony A6000. The flash was not being used and I showed the volunteer that for the flash to be used, it had to be raised. As a result, I cut my visit short and complained at the front desk. They agreed that the individual was incorrect but they offered no solution . That was $15.02 of wasted money. Staff should be properly trained .Update - still havent been back and never will.

Didnt go in, but love the Disco Chicken!

Nice place but not really for young kids.

Oh my goodness! So much wonderful to say! Every time I am in Charlotte I visit and the new exhibits never ever let me down. Fourth floor is where the magic is

Awesome modern art collection

It wasas nice... A little smaller than I expected but nice

Very interesting pieces. A nice collection.

Everybody’s museum. Staff was very good.

Very great place to go! I enjoyed learning the exhibits are very interesting.

I am very pleased with this place because they have great modern artworks.

Nice little museum located in the heart of Charlotte. Nice for an afternoon with family or date outing.

Great place to have an enjoyable experience for the evening

4th floor has most of the art, and this floor is great. Theres night a lot on the other floors.

Loved to see some of the Greatest artists ever. Picasso, Miro and Lichtenstein

Saw some cool art, def worth the $9

My kids really enjoy the visit! Very surprise abt that b/c they are only 4/6 yrs old. The front desk ladies are very nice, they gave them a Bingo card and they played a finding the art work game and they really loved it!

Great timing as the museum had a new collection on display including art works by Picasso and Miró.
