What a lovely campus! Legacy Park was AWESOME!

A beautiful campus. The museum is first rate. The collection of art is varied and vibrant. A very unique experience you cant miss if you are in the area. I didnt even realize what Hampton University really was, we were just scouting with a rental car where to anchor our boat next, and once I realized the History of the college I had to go to to museum! Just a great day, one of many on our journey to sail Dragons Lair from Florida to Wisconsin.

Beautiful campus with a rich history!

This museum clearly selects its exhibits and works thoughtfully. The works were compelling and interesting. I learned a lot from the well-written descriptions. I cant remember the last time I felt so exhausted from reading and admiring art and artifacts. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Its a wonderful museum with many pieces nicer than what I have seen in other larger museums. Many African and Dakota Indian artifacts and modern art pieces. There are also mixed media works of art from Alumni and staff of HU that are beautiful. The museum is located at the former library on campus. Sorry no photography or video recording allowed.

It was enlightening and educational. I was just a bit concerned that we were able to walk through so many parts of the school without any one asking questions about our presence in the different building. More security is needed in these days and times.

This museum is the best this is my favorite college

Tour guide was great & very knowledgeable. My daughter said its at the top of her list

Nice HBU ~ a must to visit

This place was fabulous! You werent allowed to take pictures, but lots of things were available to view & experience! I loved it & my daughter was excited about it too! There were even some takeaways including a scavenger hunt!

Great artwork. A must see in Hampton VA.

This place is amazing. Words can not describe all of the knowledge that is located at this museum.

Beautifully done, so much charm. Take care if you have little hands in-tow. Many of the exhibits are open air but labeled as Do not touch.

I actually went here for some volunteer work with my son. We enjoyed our time there and would love to visit it again.

Great local gem and free admission. Truly one of a kind for the area, and the nations first.

One of most historic place at the town, the artifacts was amazing and this is a very informative place to bring your child over, plus the staff is friendly and knowledgeable enough to entertain questions.

Beautiful exhibits, nice place to visit for a piece of local history

Excellent collection! Helpful staff.

Great school

Excellent !!!! A great place for everyone to see. Great for field trips

The museum is the oldest African American museum in the U.S & one of the oldest in Va. Located in the Huntington Building located on the grounds of Hampton University. The museum was founded in 1868. Over 9,000 objects not just African American art, Native American, and Asian art. Open Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm. Sat 12 to 4. Best part is admission is free. Its a hidden jewel. Walking in takes your breath away and to be honest I cried it that beautiful. It is a must see for visitors and if you live in Hampton Roads you have to take time and visit. There is a calendar of events lectures, workshops and if you have children the Childrens Curiosity Room is a great place to introduce young ones to the world of art. If you home school this is the perfect field trip. They also hv guided tours for Senior citizens so if you plan activities for Senior citizens I think they will enjoy this and you can schedule a guided tour. Have nothing to do? Looking for something new to do on the weekends or your day off? Out of town visitors ? I think you will enjoy this. So go uncover this hidden jewel.

I had no idea how rich and intertwined Native American culture and history are with Hampton. The art upstairs was very interesting, and we bought an art print to take home!

Building was nice and neat, lots to do and your was amazing and very informative

Was great place to see the History of the University and the past presidents

Was surprised that they had a place like that. Visited due to my daughter school field trip and found myself learning probably more than she did. Small place but packed with knowledge

Its so nice to see my culture,

Such a great collection of pieces. Always something new to see even among the permanent gallery

Insightful collection of African American art

Museum informative and gorgeous artifacts

Its was an amazing experience

Excellent experience at The Hampton University Museum.

I learned about both African and African-American history. There were many interesting artifacts to learn about. I plan to visit this place again.

Thank you Hampton University for sharing the great history of the Emancipation Tree. If we dont maintain OUR history, no one will. Enjoyed the Burrell photography exhibit as well. RIP Brother Burrell.
