I really enjoyed the exhibits. There is a very diverse selection of artistic expressions to enjoy. My visit was considerably dampened by the Museums insistence upon the wearing of the Mask of Compliance. Otherwise, an enjoyable experience.

Very diverse selections of art. Great for first time art appreciators, easy to understand explanations of each piece and sources.

Wonderful selection of North Carolina pottery. Amy Grigg, store director is incredibly knowledgeable of NC talent and resources. It’s my go-to for unique wedding gifts or any special occasion. Staff makes shipping easy and convenient.

We are pleased to say our new $60 annual membership allows us into over 50 museums in the South. Looking forward to finding them all. The Mint was really enjoyable and truly worth it. A one time entry is $15 per person ( may seem a bit high if you dont get to come back). But the $60/year (includes 2 people) is a great deal if you search out the many other museums included. Photos of the art installations are understandably not allowed, so we cant attach any. Their gift shop is free to all, regardless of a paid museum visit. Its well worth a trip and return trips. Great variety of gifts.

For me it was a good experience. We went on Wednesday evening and entering to the museum was free. I enjoyed all the art work in this museum, specially the paintings. But my boyfriend find it boring. I guess it depends if you are a museum person or not. It was beautiful and interesting. (I think the first Wednesday of every month the entering to the museum is free, but better check before go).

It was great! Me and my family loved it. The Air Your Dirty Laundry was very powerful.

I had a great time here on a date a while ago, and I had just as much of a great time with I went with my mother previously. The fee that you pay is really reasonable (and theres a discount for college students!) and the art is just magnificent.

Very interesting museum. I loved my time here. The atrium is occasionally used for weddings.The art is definatley modern, but also very nice. The prices are very interpretive. Please check out the artwork.

Lovely exhibits and friendly staff. The art they display is simply amazing. If you are a student, teacher, or active military, they offer a great rate. Definitely a great birthday experience for me today.

Really incredible. Well worth the fee and Wednesday nights are free. Amazing pieces including an Andy Warhol, Norman Rockwell and Ansel Adams. Drift light studio was breathtaking. Highly recommend!

Actually very fun. The space is as nice as the artwork. Strong crafts collection.

I really enjoy coming to this museum! The museum is free on Wednesdays! There are about three levels check out art! They have a lot of really great exhibits that go on throughout the year! I really enjoyed the fashion one a few seasons ago. I really can’t say much more than I am glad Charlotte has such a great museum for the city!

This is basically Charlottes The High Museum thats in Atlanta. Love the modern artwork and local artists. Enjoyed every single exhibit and they seem to change fairly often to make you want to keep coming back. The area is smack dab in the middle of Uptown so after hitting this museum, you can easily walk somewhere to eat. Dont forget to explore all the gift store trinkets and handmade jewelry! Looking forward to what they put out in the future!

Fun and relaxing place to go $15 for two day pass and visit the mint downtown and Randolph very exciting and very neat things to see and do. I would highly recommended if youre in the Charlotte area especially if its raining or hot / cool outside.Great walk around and just observe all the art and history of the past and present.

Nice little museum in uptown. Free entrance on Wednesday evenings. Also, $10 group yoga on Wednesday evenings.

Neat museum! We were hoping for a little more interaction with the artworks based on the description; the family area was really the only one with hands on experiences. Some amazing pieces of modern & expressive art here though.Getting our tickets through Groupon cut down the entrance fee to only $6 per person.Hope this review was helpful :)

Art and History, ️

Beautiful gallery space. Just need to teach patrons to converse quietly, refrain from eating in the gallery space, and NOT touch the art.

We took advantage of the free Wednesday evenings. The five floors are full of a wide range of art. Our family especially enjoyed creating art projects in the childrens space.

Nice museum. Lot of interesting craft arts. Enjoyed visit. 2 - 3 hours to see it.

Great medium-sized museum to spend an afternoon. Love their collection of American artists. The 10-minute art chats with a docent explaining different works of art are definitely worth your time, and are included in admission.

10000/10, beautiful work, not busy (even on a saturday), discounts for students and stuff made it really affordable. wish Id gone sooner!

We went on their free Wednesday night and it was a cool place. The kids loved it. Even if your not into art theres still so much to look at.

The Mint on Randolph offers a very eclectic collection. The grounds are significant and the building is beautiful. My favorite is their African textile collection...stunning colors.

We really appreciate the museum is reopen at such tough period but awful experience since stuff is so rude.

If you go the first sunday of every month, and have a Bank of america Account , debit card or credit card , you get in free. Nice surprise for me today. Applies to different museums also. Beautiful wood carvings and glass sculptures which were my favorites.

I try to come every couple of months because they seem to have something new and something that’lltake my breath away every time. Also, the gift shop- I wanted to go ham and buy everything for everyone and it wasn’t even Christmas time... the is going on until January 2020 if I remember correctly so there is still time to check it out!

Beautiful event space in the heart of uptown. Two great event locations inside to wow your guest. Large terrace and art galore. Check it out.

We had a blast here on a Sunday afternoon. The cool ac is a perfect offset for a hot day. Before heading out to this location, I highly recommend checking out their calendar of events.

I visited two Museums while in downtown Charlotte. I was immensely impressed by the Mint. I thought the collection of Contemporary Art was impressive, eclectic and extremely interesting. I immensely enjoyed the architecture the interior spaces for the building as well. The museum is accessible for both an experienced aficionado and the average layperson. While I was there, they were having a special exhibition of theater and television costumes. It was a great exhibition I particularly enjoyed. I hope to return at some point in the future.

Highly recommend! Loved the Studio Dift exhibits on the 3rd and 5th floor. Melissa, part of the security personnel, gave absolutely excellent customer service and answered my questions like a docent/tour guide would!

Ok I am not an art fan. I like some photography but not a huge fan of museums. We happened to go on a free day. For free, this was fine. There was also a groupon for $13.50 for 2 people. Probably worth that but not the regular $15 per person price. 3 floors, but the 5th floor was something with light and Im not really sure what it was. Felt a little like a construction site. Theres a museum store. Took us about 30 minutes to see everything. Again, if you love art and can get a groupon, might be worth it. We walked but i think theres an underground garage and they validate up to 2 hours.

This is such a fantastic museum. Has so many different genres/eras of art and with so many different types of mediums. So cool and classy! Also the gift shop didn’t seem gimmicky, but a really good place to find gifts.

We Have a Great Expeince with my family, But the one staff ignore us :(

A wonderful art museum with several exhibits. Highly recommend for a visit to Charlotte!

On a whim we decided to check this place out and Im so glad we did. The art exhibit was extremely nice and the staff was really friendly. If you need something to do or just want to experience something different, the Mint Museum is the place to go!

Been a few times and its always a pleasure. New limited time exhibits can be found on the top floor, while many of the other floors contain permanent pieces. Low price for a humbling and meaningful experience.

Doug Davis (D2 productions) does an AMAZING job with the A/V installations and production here at the Mint Museum. I have worked for / with him quite a bit and I have ALWAYS been INCREDIBLY IMPRESSED with his level of detail and the BROAD SCOPE of the possibilities that comes when you have a company like his that has so much AMAZING GEAR and the EXPERIENCE to know how to put it ALL TOGETHER. Top notch, CAPABLE, CREATIVE and PROFESSIONAL. Hes the BEST

Plenty to see and enjoy in the museum. The price was reasonable and accommodated students.Highly recommend.

Nice contemporary art and materials section.Although Im not big on contemporary art, I did appreciate their permanent exhibit. They also have many works of art by local artists

Nice location. Pretty clean and has nice selection of art pieces. 5 levels in building. Gift shop on 1st bottom level. Lobby and kids play area in 2nd. 3rd( aka M) & 4th levels gallery areas. 5th level Special events (weddings + parties) . No public guest parking in building. Must park across street near by building garages -The Green, Wells Fargo center, Duke energy,Levine center etc... no parking validation but 5 dollar max parking voucher coupon available.

It was very nice and some interesting staff.

This place is amazing.. I love art and love this place . Its a place where all types of art is showcased. They also gives the community the opportunity for you to play a role in the showcasing by voting and even gives the community opportunity to add their art. The people who works there are very informative of the art and pieces. Just go and look around.

The CineOddessy Festival and this venue were perfect together!

Such a lovely museum, very nice staff, beautiful art, and inspiring pieces. Highly recommend

Very cool part of the city. A few friends and I went on a free night and enjoyed it a lot. It wasnt to busy so we felt free to take our time browsing. The Green is across the street and is a very enjoyable little park. Parking is also free and convenient on the free museum admission nights.

One of the biggest and best museums Ive visited. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Great location for places to eat after you walk for two hours.

A beautiful, inspiring, and relaxing place to visit.

Awesome place and free on Wed after 5pm!

Charmed by the massive yet beautiful outside, we were treated to a truly exciting and compelling collection. We loved the American art, with sprinkles of costumes and sculpture, going from early America up to contemporary art. The spaces are open and flexible, with nice touches and perfect lighting, inviting you to linger at your favorites (and we had several). The craft/sculptural floor is also stunning, with a few massive works and small works that you simply want to absorb. We even loved the temporary installation! Just a great find for anyone visiting downtown.

This was an awesome experience to say the least. There was a very wide collection of art here from abstract to sculptures and fashion. I will be visiting again here soon. Make sure to have a couple of hours to spare as there are several floors of art to explore. The staff here is very friendly and attentive.

Good fun, educational, not expensive

We did a yoga class here and it was a very nice experience.

Open late on certain days. Something for everyone as long as you like art. Beautiful, well kept building. So many amazing pieces and exhibits. Friendly staff.

Mint is a super cool place. I never went there as a patron but I used to do their IT. The Halal food trailer outside is to die for.

Definitely one of my favorite places in Uptown. The Craft Museum is amazing and they have a great variety of programming for the community. The Family Gallery is so much fun and a regular stop for us when were in the area. Wednesday nights are free, and parking is a flat $5 on the weekends in the underground parking!

Great museum. Mostly modern art but they do have a nice section of American Art that is dated. Some pieces are interactive while others follow themes. Definitely worth a visit while in Charlotte.

Good variety of artist and styles. But my purpose was photography and it delivered. Can spend the whole afternoon if you lile exploring arts .

Good experience, beautiful exhibits, great service, and amazing kiddie area but some staff were too clumsy and not welcoming.

Very nice and clean!

The Crayola scribbled drawings were AMAZING. There was tons of art with stick figures and even houses. I also was blown away by the macaroni pictures where they glue them into shapes. One piece on display had exquisite use of alphabet shaped pastas. Such stunning and intricate words such as “dog” and “mom” were sprawled across colored pieces of construction paper. Finally, there was a section where Playdough shapes were on display. There were squares, circles and even an asymmetric heart. All in all a great experience with fabulous masterpieces.

Love the Chihuly chandelier! Always fun and inviting. Free to the public every Wednesday from 5pm-9pm! Great outdoor patio to sit and have a conversation or eat some food from the restaurant. Always look forward to their ever changing exhibits. Fun for the whole family.

The kids loved the room downstairs made just for them!! No crowds after 6pm

What a great, excellent, amazing museum- the area of Immersed In Light was awesome! Great to visit when you are in Charlotte! A 10 in my book of museums. Thank you to the friendly staff and customer service reps.

Its nice to hang out with your family

If youre a fan of Modern Art, then this is a must-see when youre in Charlotte. There is some traditional art at this location, but it is the Modern Art that tis the most stunning. It is well presented in a series of galleries that are spread over three floors, with both elevator and escalator access. The museum is located in the heart of downtown (they call it uptown) with parking right next door. The Museum Store is unusually large for a smaller museum like this, and although a bit pricey, they have a good selection of items related to art and the museum.

Great museum for contemporary art fans! I loved the featured exhibits they had. Small museum but good. General admission ($10.00) is pretty reasonable (student discounts are available with school ID- $8.00) I would say you could see all the highlights of this museum in 1 hour and 30 minutes! Skip the gift store though! In my opinion it is overpriced although some things are a good deal. But you will pay tourist prices! I do recommend this museum for older adults, middle aged and older people. Not really a kid museum though (go to the NASCAR Hall of Fame for the kids).

I love that they have an interactive section for kids to play and enjoy art.

An interesting museum containing art and artifacts from across the nation. A lovely exhibit highlighting costume design was opened when we visited. It was a great place to visit on a rainy day.

Excellent museum displaying modern art. Fabulous floor plan and very refined exhibits. Its a gotta see museum.

I enjoyed the museum: it is spacy and has different exhibitions of the authors I have never heard of before. The only thing I feel bad for is that I didn’t get a tour guide.

Interesting exposition of modern arts

It has 5 floors and on Wednesday after 5pm all of them have free entrance which is amazing! The staff at the desk is very kind and friendly.

It was a great experience. A beautiful place for an elegant wedding.

Very interesting and some really beautiful pieces. A definite place to bring out of town guests and family.

Great place to enjoy live classic music and artworks. Admission is $15, but there is a free admission every Wednesday 5PM-9PM.

Very family friendly and ever-changing. A great event for the kids :)

One of my favorite spots in Uptown.

I visit both of the mint museums and this is for sure my favorite even that the other has a better outside space .Lots of modern art, lots of local artists that is very interesting.The children room is very well thought and little one could stay there forever if we let him . The space is divided in different areas inspired by different art pieces from the museum. There is also a art area where children can paint, do collage , do origami etc...In the bathrooms there is a changing tables and in the 3rd floor you can find a special room for nursing or changing also .Park in the garage next to it , $5 only during the weekend with direct elevator to the museum .The 3rd floor was my favorite besides the children’s room .

Im not experienced of modern and contemporary art but I liked very much this museum and the eay of exposithion

Museum itself. They have really nice room for kids all ages. All my family enjoyed time spent here.

I always have a nice time at the Mint. I will miss it when I move.

Excellent art museum in uptown! Whether youre into Modern art or the amazing visiting shows like the Broadway costumes or Madeleine Albrights broach collection, the Mint is fabulous for art.They also have great permanent collections and I have visited many times. Check for specials or go on Wednesday evening from 5-9 pm when its free!(Tip--The restaurant Halcyon is phenomenal too if you go for dinner afterwards and it is in the same building!!) Parking is easy in the lot across the street or the underground deck too.

The museum had great music, wonderful singers, artists and poets and the first black student to attend Garinger High school was recognized at the first HBCUNeo soul event.

Outside looks promising but overall lackluster exhibits. To be fair, there were a few excellent pieces. But a major city like Charlotte can do better.Randomly, their giftshop sells small cartons of water if you are thirsty.. so they have that going

Im sorry to disappoint, but Im not a fan. I love museums, Im not trying to be boushie but these 2 museums arent really museums. For $30 you can visit both, not sure why there are 2. Each one barely had enough in them! They should combine what they have in both into 1. It was a total waste of time to go to both. It was more like an exhibit, not a proper museum. Ive been to several museums, my husband and I were so disappointed. The total cost for the day, not including gas was $40 for about a 25-30 minute walk through each place this included parking downtown. I appreciate the thought and the effort, but there really isnt anything to see. Please combine the 2, and then it would be a small museum but at least worth the tripSo disappointed, with the heat if it had been AMAZING, which it wasnt then I would have gotten over the heat. So if you have ABSOLUTELY nothing to spend $40 on go. The one nice thing your ticket is good for 2 days, but why I ask its a 20-30 minute walk through at best.

It was amazing, although I wish the first shop featured more of the art in the museum

The art in the museum is breathtaking. I recommend it to any art lover or even people passing threw Charlotte!

Nice museum, the people there were fantastic. The building felt spacious and the layout led you through the art on display in a natural way. There were many different types of art from portraits to pottery to collages. Something for anyone. It is a little pricey for a family, but worth it if you are interested in seeing ideas made real.

Good colection. Enjoyed studio drift works also

The mint was a perfect venue for our wedding. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and made our process so easy. Thank you Gary for making our special day stress free.

Very nice museum in downtown Charlotte

Fun and great experience. Learned alot

I enjoyed the different galleries and the separation between them. Gave me a different experience within each. A nice creative and engaging way to spend an evening. The free entrance with Bank of America CC was a plus.

The temporary exhibit from Netherlands is amazing. Be sure to go to the 5th floor for the interactive exhibit.

Great contemporary/modern Art exhibits, my daughter an aspiring artist got to meet the artist for the Immersed in light display.

Very nice layout an friendly people!

Small but interesting museum nestled among other attractions and eateries.

Love the Mint! What a great exhibit space for Charlotte and such well curated art that exist here!

Had a great time exploring the museum with the kids. They could spend the entire day there easily.
