Small but impactful. There were 2 Smithsonian collections on display when we visited. We also got in free for the winters farmers market. Every Thursday in 2019 entrance to the exhibits is free due to a donation given to the museum. The museum is family friendly with new exhibits, cultural shows, and craft project days for children.

I called to purchase a gift card for my dad for Fathers Day and the employee who helped me went above and beyond! She was so friendly, gave me great options, and made sure it was in the mail promptly. My dad was so excited and loves his experience there!

A small scale art museum with interesting exhibits that left me wishing it was a bigger museum able to offer more.

Went to see the Artthur Geisert display and thoroughly enjoyed it. Their other art displays are impressive for an art museum their size.

Wonderful museum. This community puts alot of effort into cultivating their art scene. Dubuque was top notch and the volunteers at the museum were friendly.

Small for an art museum with ( in my opinion) okay art. If you are bored its not expensive so maybe check it out.

According to the Dubuque Visitors Guide 2013, this museum is free (pages 13 and 34). There is a cost for non-members. I know the volunteer asked us for six dollars each. She was unable to run my debit card for some reason so she let us go in for free. She gets five stars - excellent customer service.I am glad that we didnt have to pay, though. There is incredibly little to see in the museum, at least on the day we visited (11/13/13). They had a few works by Karen Kurka Jensen, which were very nice and a few by Grant Wood. They had fewer still works by a handful of other artists. All the artworks are in two small rooms and a short walkway on the second level. There was a much bigger room, but it was being repainted and was empty of artwork. Why charge anything when half the museum is closed off? If the volunteer had been able to run my card, I probably would have asked for my money back.

We go to the museum for kids programs a few times a month. They have a few small gallery spaces and switch the exhibits every few months. The staff is very friendly and the space is elegant.

Small gem of an art museum with staff that are so friendly and warm that youll want to chat instead of look.

The photos were nice but it isnt a museum but rather a gallery for a few artists. Very small and not much for information or history on the art/artist
