Thursdays they are open until 8, so we were lucky enough to make it in. The young man at the counter was so very helpful and the yart work was amazing. (The glass display was my favorite!) Also enjoyed the gift shop!

Great museum! Free admission on Thursdays from 5-8.

This was a good experience. They have a variety of art work of various types. There is a great expo of Armenia and a another one of African American Photography. I highly recommend a visit.

Just letting everyone know that the efforts made by FWMoA to keep everyone healthy and safe are exceptional. No-touch doors, spotlessly clean, very extensive protective acrylic panels at the desk with external no-touch credit card device, plus polite enforcement of masks rule — all made our visit stress-free and pleasant. Patrons have plenty room to distance from each other.Wonderful art too of course! As always!Don’t hesitate to go!

Easy to navigate among halls, nice and exclusive collection

The glass art is beautiful, definitely go and check out this museum. Some of the art is weird, but most of it was a really fun experience. I think every other month there is different art featured.

Always great interesting displays. Pertinent to the times and with as deep a meaning as you wish to grasp.

Unfortunately the museum was closed on a particular day that I arrived (monday), but I have heard that the Fort Wayne Museum of Arts is pretty amazing! Furthermore the parking is pretty easy to get to. I recommend this place

I liked the format of the museum: just a few rooms of specifically themed curated work. I came from out of town to see Dalí: Stairway to Heaven; it was awesome! Iearned so much and really enjoyed his work.

Decent museum of mostly photography and modern art. Worth a look.

The Salvador Dali exhibit was a beautiful way to spend the day.

I love this place. For two years now, my husband and I have stopped in during a summer art festival we attend. This year, we brought our younger son (17). HE even enjoyed it! They support local artists and I enjoy the friendly atmosphere. What a wonderful, hidden treasure! Definitely take the time to visit. You wont be disappointed, and youll actually be a little proud of Fort Waynes hard work for the communitys enjoyment.

Exhibits change but always something interesting. Looks like they have a permanent Dale Chihuly glass exhibit.

A nice variety of styles of art. Great descriptions of art & artist. Gorgeous glass pieces. The gift store featured local artists. My granddaughter & i enjoyed the room where you could touch the stamps that made the prints. Interesting for young & old!

Small museum, but very interesting. There are 2 photo exhibitions that are very profound, moving and incredibly human. I spent 2 hours there and could not get enough of these 2 great artists.

This facility provides easy, affordable access to beautiful and important artwork in a pleasant, unobtrusive atmosphere. Its a good place to relax and think. Im frequently impressed by Fort Waynes art scene. The quality and dedication are consistent with a much larger city. Good job!

The museum of art in Fort Wayne is spectacular. Did you know that the museum rotates exhibits more than most art museums? They do it to keep people interested more and it is amazing because you can go multiple times and see a completely different exhibit.

Very nice exhibits but very small. We are lucky to have this museum in FW. I particularly enjoyed the print exhibit.

First time for an art museum for me. Guess I expected a little bit more from an art museum. It was fascinating for the first time. There is seven exhibits possible with their space given. They give you a map and theres plenty of signage to tell you what you are looking. Staff was helpful when we arrived and offered assistance if we needed help.

I had some free time downtown, and decided to check out the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. I was pleasantly surprised that on Thursday evenings there is no admission (regular admission is just $8), and although the space is somewhat small, I found it to house a wide range of contemporary art, including paintings, woodcuts, and glass pieces. The woman at the desk (I did not get her name) was quite helpful, suggesting an ideal path through the galleries.

Great collection for a town this size.

While my don from NYC was in town we visited the temporary exhibit titled Theotokis. Really enjoyed the exhibit and museum. They had a low $20 for the entire family price.

The new glass exhibit is great. A lot of work went into that.

I had never been to an art museum before so Im hardly an expert but going here is very enjoyable and calming. Its quite, and chill and its very interesting to read about all the prices they have inside. Their selection is always changing as well with new artists and collaborations so its always worth a revisit.

Worth the visit in the Arts District. Lots of other museums and within walking distance of downtown.

This is a fantastic art museum.

My kids love making art there. Good museum overall. We love the layout and how it is getting better each year.

This was a lovely stop for my weekend trip. Theres a good variety of styles and time periods represented, and a big focus on local artists, with some international work as well. The staff is very friendly and military members, veterans, and dependents all get in free with ID, along with a guest. The gift shop has some beautiful and unique items. Non-flash photography is allowed in the gallery too.

Love the impactful cultural influences of each exhibit. Always a valuable lesson from each artist perspective

The exhibits were done by some of the greatest artists in photography,m masks. And glass making

During our visit the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards featuring the Gold and Silver Key winning art and writing by students in grades 7-12 from the local area was on display. This was a juried competition and there was fantastic work on display including poetry but the exhibit felt very packed! Loved all the pieces but it probably could have been edited down to better showcase the winners.

The kids, ages five and nine, enjoyed the exhibits and had a great time in the learning center making their own creations.

We picked a rainy day to visit the Museum of Art and fortunately free parking was nearby. Free lockers (with key) are available to stow your coats and umbrellas. We started our tour with the landscape glass sculptures and the display cases of brilliant cut glass. From there we were awed by the talent of middle school/high school students who were 2019 Scholastic Art and Writing Award winners. The depth, feeling, understanding, and creativity of such young students is hard to comprehend. Words cant describe how talented these young people are.

The modern feeling of the exhibit galleries gives this museum a nice relaxing feeling!

Disappointed.Not much to see.

I had a concert here and it was around taste of the arts and it was just an amazing experience and it was so fun for me and my brother and the field trips there were very interesting and entertaining even though I have been a bunch of times

Really beautiful exhibits, cleanly and amazingly displayed, with plenty of information on each piece, and pamphlets for each display. The guy at the desk was nice and made sure I knew about the available discounts. Very clean building and the outdoor sculpture area is also lovely. Their website is also very well-done, and any information you could want is very easy to find. They even gave alternative routes taking road construction into account.

We are so lucky to have this museum.

Veteran place to stop. Not really for children but it was nice to walk around and listen to my son echo his voice as the other people were enjoying the exhibits. Right next to competitions this year stopped by to kill some time.

They have some absolutely beautiful glass art in there currently. The rest of the art is nice too (im just a glass fan).

Worth a visit, check it out.

Went to the dia de los muertos event they had. I havent been to the art museum since I was a child which was a long time ago. I was surprised at how nice this place was. I need to come back soon. Its so peaceful and I had a good time checking out all the art not just the dia de los muertos pieces.

Took the Boy Scouts here. Great place for education

This recently expanded museum serves a medium size city very well. The variety of shows along with the regular cyclical exhibits is designed to draw in those who are not normally museum goers, as well as the regulars. The traveling shows that are brought in are worth a visit as is the permanent collection items.

I happened to go when they were showcasing student art and its amazing how talented those kids were. Im glad I popped in! The museum is small, you probably wont spend more than an hour there, but its worth the stop.

An art museum small enough to get thru in a couple hours while still taking your time to experience the art. Includes a kid focused room. When we were there, a room of local high school art work was on display. This was very interesting and refreshing.

Always wanted to visit ,love every second there,fabulous and peaceful,look forward to returning and viewing what are artist are doing in our community

What a rip off. $6 for kids, $8 adults for a handful of contemporary exhibits that were similar. Breezed through this in maybe 10 minutes feeling completely dissatisfied.

Beautiful setup and pieces!

Trying to be something they are not. Monstrous red I-beam sculpture in front yard looks like reject from a junk yard. White one too. Student Art?Director: Try Harder.

This museum is so fun and always changing! They also have a gift shop filled with local art! This place is a must see if you are in the area!

Use to work there awesome place to get your culture on

The art festival was so much fun!!

The staff just friendly and the museum is phenomenal. Well kept and well worth visiting!

Fun experience.

I was there with my grandson attending an art class. Its a fun class that teaches some basics for 3D art.

I really enjoyed the ecclectic amount of exhibits they had going. It was such a joy to walk through and experience it all.

Beautiful building with friendly staff and interesting exhibits. Quiet and enjoyable.

Its no doubt a great museum for a small city like Fort Wayne. They constantly change artworks every few months to keep the locals engaged. However, if youre in the mindset that itll be like the art museums within bigger cities (Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, etc.), then you will not see it here.At this time, I feel that it is a good place to visit. Its nothing spectacular and I didnt leave feeling impressed. I believe that over time, things will get better as they will offer better artworks.

Dont go here expecting to see works by well known artists. All art housed here is contemporary, when there are renowned artists you have to pay an extra fee. I would rather drive to Toledo and see Renoir and Degas for a $5 parking fee and good will donation. Its a small museum and feels more like a contemporary art gallery than a museum. If it were more outlandish like MoMA it would be more fun, but its mediocre at best.

Great to expose children to art of all types. Great to have such a big city level museum in Fort Wayne.

For a small museum, its got a great collection. There are always visiting exhibits, too. A membership is the best choice, because you could easily go quite often (they are also part of a reciprocal program with other museums). There are classes, programming for children, and a wonderful shop that sells the work of local artists.

Had an excellent time walking around the museum with my wife. The glass exhibit was fantastic, as well as the Chuck Sperry exhibit. Im not a huge art guy but this was a really good time.

Great museum in Fort Wayne. Has great exhibits, and the gift shop in the museum, called the Paradigm Gallery showcases and sells art work by local artists. The staff is always helpful.

Over priced not much to visit

JUST AN AWESOME DISPLAY OF ART, AN STAFF ARE AS POLITE AS EVER!!!

Very nice and interesting. Enjoyed walking around and reading the history of peoples creative ideas.

Very nice time with my son. First visit for both of us. Looking forward to future visits!

I got more than expected! Get place!

Just right for a pleasant afternoon

Now I love the art museum. However, there is one thing that drives me absolutely crazy about it. Why do they have the absolute worst hours possible?!? I mean they open at 10 am and close at 6 pm most nights. Except on Thursday they are open to 8 pm. I am sorry but I can never make it to there because I get off at 5:15 and by the time I drive there it is already 5:45. Maybe you should consider changing your hours to fit the average working citizen better. Other than that, the place is constantly rotating its collections to give patrons a new experience every few months.

Really enjoyed my visit there interesting art on display

I have lived in Fort Wayne my whole life never went to this gem until recently if your a resident or just visiting do yourself a favor and check out all the beautiful and interesting art on display here.

Just go there. If you enjoy art. Just. Go. Its. Worth. It.

A small museum--basically one gallery, that changes every few months. Its usually more recent artists, within the last century. The childrens space (small, but keeps young and elementary-aged children occupied) and the gift shop (lots of local artists, beautiful work) are the best parts.

The art is Very creative. I wish we had more contributors, artists though.

Get your cultural side on. Relax and browse the entire museum gallerys at your own pace. All different works of art from old to new.Neet place.

Guitar exhibition is quite large, was pleasantly surprised with quantity, displays, and individual differences of unique guitars.

Enjoyed the current exhibits and will be back when new ones come in. We enjoy how easy it is to walk through at your own pace, well placed pieces, and great lighting.

I am not an art fanatic so take my review with a grain of salt. This was a fun inexpensive walkthrough with the family. The children were kind of bored because it is more adult-oriented.

Very nice place. New art displays, events and clean facility. I liked my time here!

I was so very disappointed with my visit. There were 3 rooms we were able to go into. Short of a few display cases everything else was framed art on the walls. We were given a $2 discount because they were taking down displays in other areas.It honestly took all of 20 minutes to see everything thoroughly. There should not be any charge for the minimal display available.Sadly I will not return.

Love the mask section

There wasnt much to see. Kind of a small museum. They did have a good art expo though.

The exhibits were really vivid. Some interactive features too

The 2018 international glass collection was what we came for, but we saw this most amazing wonderland collection. Will definitely come again.

Really great museum in every way. I think the recent run of exhibits has been especially strong. A solid way to spend an afternoon.

Curator Josef Zimmerman has kept this museum neck deep in great contemporary artists whose work is often associated with those big cities. From the family friendly area with various manipulatives, literature, and art materials to the exhibited works, the FWMoA is world class.

Hidden gem in the fort. Free admission on Thursday. Take the kids and get some art in your life!

Nice set up

Real nice museum.

Great place to go

Nice small museum. Nice collection of Winslow Homer.

Very nice and beautiful inside, but due to the market here in Fort Wayne, aside from a few striking pieces, the collection is rather boring.

An excellent variety of exhibits. Clean and spacious. Cute gift shop.

A wonderful experience with helpful directions and information. I will definitely be visiting the museum again in the near future.

Great, interesting stuff.

They offer free admission with military ID ( with guest), always new things to see

Always a great time when we visit!
