I have an associate membership here and if you really have an interest in contemporary art Id gently suggest you become an associate. It opens up a lot of opportunities for you to delve deeper into the experience of the Walker.There is so much in the Walker collection its difficult to find a place to start. Currently they have a wonderful exhibition of womxn artists including those that express themselves as Fluxus artists. Their permanent collection is diverse and expansive. Id advise taking several days to wander the galleries in order to really absorb the ideas presented.

Really cool museum & sculpture garden, would highly recommend if youre in the area. The exhibits are always unique, great place to escape the winter cold, or for a walk outside in the gardens if its a nice MN day! :-)

Walker Art Center is a very cool, unique modern art building to visit. However, I feel like they push a political agenda with the way a lot of their descriptions are worded, specifically targeting conservatives. If I go to an art museum, I wanna learn about the art, not the politics. Besides that, its a great trip and definitely worth your time.

The museum is a wonderful collection of contepomi art. Recommend the rooftop view of the city. Thursdays from 5 to 9 the museum is free. The crowning glory is the sculpture garden across the street. Absolutely wonderful!!

Free parking. Clean. Good Family time. Good to spend 1 to 2 hours. No restaurant and coffee shops. Residents around. Dont eat here like other park. Just walk watch and click pics.

Best art exhibits in the US! I’ve traveled around the world looking at unique art and these exhibits are easily the most unique and stimulating of any I’ve ever seen. 10/10 would reccomend to anyone looking for a new place to enjoy art and network with like minded individuals. Also the sculpture garden nearby is also a must see.

A superb collection of worldwide art and artifacts. Whether your into modern art, landscape paintings, ancient sculptures or architectural interior gems this excellent museum has you covered. And due to generous sponsors their is no admission fee. Bring family and friends for a fine outing.

Fantastic art gallery with an amazing changing exhibition. As well as wonderful standing exhibitions. I really appreciate the themed shows that have come in the past few rounds, particularly with attention and emphasis on women and people of color presenting their art. One of my favorite art museums in town!

A great stop in Minneapolis, unique sculptures, gorgeous flower gardens & spectacular views of Basilica of Saint Mary

Chilly day at the Walker outdoor sculpture garden. But grey sky means nice even exposed photos!The image is from the lighting at the Walker! Art is everywhere!

Great walking and relaxing space with art all around. Good social distancing activity with a great park right across the interstate walking bridge.

This place is an excellent example of the benefits of well planned public places.

It had been years since Ive been there. It has certainly changed and for the better. Love the expanded new galleries. Very easy to get to.

Trendy, stylish Art Museum. We visited this place for the first time during the Stomping Ground event, and it was a very fun experience: on the sculpture garden just in front of the museum, a mix of circus artists, giant soap bubbles, and other activities created a magical pop art atmosphere. Inside the well curated exhibits are dedicated to contemporary art with artist using all kind of media. Highly recommended.

The museum is a wonderful collection of contepomi art. Recommend the rooftop view of the city.

The modern art on display at this museum was absolutely some of the greatest things I’ve ever seen. I have never before appreciated art in such a way. There were moments where I was brought to tears, moments where I laughed, and moments where I just stood there trying to understand. Some of which I could not, but it was still a beautiful experience. However if I could convince the group I was with about how modern art is not just strange, then it would’ve been perfect. Yes some people who would see a replication of a car from a fatal accident, or body parts set up in a crate, or CDs stuck to a wall with honey dripping down would be considered strange. But the art behind the pieces is everything. I only wish I had more time to understand every single piece. Also if you are in the military you get in for free!!! A member of our group got all 4 of us in for free. Also the gift shop has some really cool books and overpriced souvenirs, but what is a great gift shop with out that? Will definitely come again, but most likely by myself so I can appreciate the art in a different way. But YES make sure you visit if you’re in the area!!!!

Beautiful, interesting works of art. Lovely outdoor sculpture garden. Well labeled works of art. Clean grounds and museum

I didnt go inside. Outside sculptures were unique

Enjoyable trail with a variety of sculptures to wander about and explore. Most of them are hands off right now with covid, but still an enjoyable experience.

Great place for a beautiful day! Art is amazing!

SPECTACULAR!!! MY GRANDDAUGHTERS PHOTO IS HANGING IN THE ENTRANCE... FROM ALMOST 10 YEARS AGO!!

I was very excited to return to the Walker. Unfortunately I left after about 5 minutes. I was assured, when I purchased my ticket that visitors would be required to wear masks. This was not the case. Many children running about without masks and adults as well. The adults put their masks on at the entrance and as soon as get to the galleries take them off. This endangers other visitors as well as the staff. Very disappointed that staff does not ask unmasked people to leave.They have since this was written become more alert to this problem and are taking action.

Really loved this place, the exhibitions are so artistic and well displayed throughout. The art is very provcative and interesting. For someone who has no knowledge of Art l really enjoyed it here...its great to come here alone and get lost in the various art pieces. For the first time here and as an Irishman this is such a cool place to check out and very reasonable gallery fee! Would love to see whats on display when l return in April next year.

What a great way to expose art and be free. I wish the weather will be a little warmer. It was an amazing walk around the center. The kids had fun running around in the park.

Too much pop art for my liking but there were a few interesting pieces I saw. There are lots of filmed art pieces and they were interesting to watch, but also very strange. If you like wierd art you will dig this place !

Fun place for modern art. Some nudity in pieces so not the best for young children.

Great museum, beautifully installed. Plus it includes the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden which is open to the public without an entrance fee for the museum.

Interesting sculptures. Some beautiful, some different. If with kids of reading age, stay clear of the marble benches. Not all are family friendly. But overall nice place to walk around and spend an afternoon.

I enjoyed the museum. The layout was rather confusing, there was a lot of people working in each room which made me as a viewer feel pressured to move quickly, and there wasnt any cohesive theme. The rooftop garden was closed. Im not a huge modern art fan but I only disliked it because of its lack of cohesion. They had Schiele, Picasso, Duchamp, a lot of big names. Honestly, if you can only do one museum go to the Minneapolis Art Institute (MIA).

The walker-museum is not your stereotypical art museum but thats what I loved about it. So many interesting pieces to check out, I especially loved the 9 TVs, that was my favourite. There are many floors still closed off so Im looking forward to those! And teenagers below 18 are free :)

Really fun to wander the sculpture garden. Great pieces!

Wonderful place to spent one half to a full day. We walked around the outside sculpture walk (read the writing on the benches), grabbed lunch nearby then came back and went through the museum. There are many excellent pieces in the museum and it is more approachable than many other modern art museums tend to be.

Love the rooftop golfing and the expansive city views! Beautiful building and impressive artwork.

Super cool park and sculpture garden. Loved the blue rooster.

If you enjoy pottery then have fun exploring a variety of coffee mugs and trays.

Beautiful place social distancing made easy

The Walker always has great exhibits and shows. The outdoor sculpture garden is great for bringing visitors to, or even active children who want to run around outside. Recently saw a great foreign film in their theater that was amazing! (Parasite)

This is a great place to take your family or a first date. The sculptures are amazing and very intriguing. It is def worth a visit!

We went on Thursday evening where admission is free for all ages from 5pm to 9pm. The exhibits were very interesting, intriguing, and beautiful. Then there happened to be a 2nd annual fashion show! Was awesome!! My 8 yr old really enjoyed himself, staff is courteous, and nice. One gal even got into showing him about an art piece of blank dog tags shaped as Afghanistan, with record of fallen soldiers from 2010-2014 (I may be wrong on the beginning year). And other staff would answer his questions or pique his thoughts in response. Was really neat. Also has interactive art pieces which is great too.

Fun and free! If youre a MN native or just passing through the sculpture garden is a must see. Its a great way to experience art and nature. Its close to downtown Minneapolis and uptown so you have tons of options for lunch or dinner while youre out. Ill probably pack a picnic next time.

I love this place!Have been there twice,During the summer and during the winter! no matter when, there is always inspiring crazy awesome art work to see,The book collection at the gift-shop are just unbelievable! every time I kind of really want to buy half of all theyve got!Highly highly recommend visiting this place!

Just had my first visit once the remodel and thought it was terrific. A highly accessible, education-oriented modern art museum with a really terrific collection in the heart of one of the coolest neighborhoods in the cities.

Walked over a mile from downtown, through a beautiful green walkway, across a stunning pedestrian bridge, to these amazing outdoor sculptures. What a wonderful place to stroll and take in the sights and eclectic collection of art. Don’t miss!

Great place to hangout and take beautiful pictures. Beautiful scenery. There is a covered car park opposite the park that costs $5 and an open car park beside the park that costs $4.

It was super fun there I liked it a lot :D

Lots of modern sculptures and nice grounds to go for a walk. They also have covered areas. Theres metered parking on the street and a lot, not sure if theres a free parking lot close by

A lovely place to visit for art! exhibits change pretty frequently so theres always new things to see. the sculpture garden is amazing in the summer.

Great place to have access to art. They have free arta events on Thursday nights. And Saturday family art once a month. Check their web page for details.

My family and I have loved coming here. The exhibits are always interesting and the rotation of installments on the top floor have been intriguing and unique. The mini golf course is worth a play, but it is insanely challenging at times because it is more art than golf. The sculpture garden is a great oasis in the center of the city.

Great place. Fun to walk around. NUMBER ONE recommendation for newcomers is to KEEP AN OPEN MIND - Read the descriptions and try to think from the artists perspective. Dont treat art at face value!Gift shop is pricey but you can get some cool ideas there for art enthusiasts.

We are so lucky to have this gem in our city. Beautiful, inspiring, incredible art in every form.

Such a beautiful place to go relax and read book

Nice place to check out some huge outdoor art. The walking path was good. Nice place to take the dog for a walk . Will definitely recommend.

I have photographed weddings, events, and engagement sessions at Walker Art Center and it has always been such an incredible and unique experience! They do an amazing job hosting events and their team is so kind and welcoming!

Great art gallery museum. Excellent place to meditate and get some quiet me time with art.

I did not go through the Walker Art Museum but I did walk around the sculpture gardens outside. These have change significantly in the past year but there are some very iconic pieces of artwork outside. The dropback of the downtown Minneapolis skyline makes for a beautiful setting. Overall, I would not say that this place is the most interesting but it is definitely worth going once.

Very good place, you can have very good pictures here

Though sometimes misguided with past exhibits (ie Mankato), this is a really beautiful public access garden and center to have at the heart of Minneapolis. You can spend hours in the gardens alone. They also tackle exhibits that have relevance to our current times that can serve as thought provoking pieces to inspire progressive change. If thats not your thing, dont worry, there are still endless whimsical views to get lost in.

Great place to visit for contemporary arts. The galley was quite shorter than I expected.Definitely need to check out the outdoor park and would visit this museum again for different exhibition.

Nice place , $15 entrance also you can do a membership to get discounts. 8 floor building full of art. Paints , sculptures, video motions and more.

$15 admission and floors 4-7 were completely closed, the lady at the desk couldve mentioned that before I paid to get in. I may try it again sometime but Imma make sure everything is open before I drop $15 again

The Walker Art Center is a beautiful museum filled with world-class pieces and attached to the Guthrie theater. You could easily spend a day walking through here in a very relaxed setting enjoying yourself. They also have a great restaurant in the building so you truly can make a day of it. When you go here, don’t forget the step outside and enjoy many hours in the beautiful adjacent sculpture garden.

Iconic sculpture garden.They cultivate great modern works and some really awesome videos.It was an amazing experience.Gorgeous area.Very nice staff.

I love the sculpture garden here, its beautiful. Its free to walk through and is a good activity if you have some extra time. The museum portion is also nice. There are a few things that fit the typical bad modern art but for the most part it is very nice and well worth your time. For parking, try to find street parking in the area and simply take a short walk to the museum or sculpture garden. Youll save a few dollars!

Amazing sculpture walk and cool modern art museum! Modern art isn’t my favorite art style, but it is always fun to spend time walking around the museum and appreciating the art.

High culture modern art center. Exhibits are interesting, even for those who arent fans of modern art. Check its calendar for free admission days. Also, go check out the sculpture garden outside during the same visit. Has a cafe with good drinks. Lots for kids to do, too

I love art, particularly paintings and photography. The Walker Art Center isnt my favorite type of art, being contemporary, but if thats what you like this is a fantastic place. The sculpture garden is quite nice, too.

Beautiful sculptures and art, easy to social distance(outside), and a fun atmosphere.

Fun place spirit very interesting art.

Very cool art center. I mostly enjoyed the sculpture garden. It did broadcast an incredible array of artists from around the world but I do wish they had a few more local spots from the great people of Minneapolis. Highlighting local in a town that artistic would be awesome!

I adore this place to death. Its completley free to everyone under 18, and otherwise I believe the cost isnt too much. They are concerned with showing art, not making money. The exhibits seem sprawling. We were here for three hours and didnt even get to everything. Everything just has a certain feeling of importance yet not, and I cant explain it over text. Go see this place for yourself, its a beautiful building full of mini stories.

This is an amazing museum in Minneapolis. The art in the museum and the sculptures in the garden make thus one of my favorite places.

Pretty cool spot to visit. The cherry is a sprinkler and Im sure its fantastic in the summer heat.

Interesting place, if you are in the area take a look! You will not be disappointed.

A good place to go with family and friends

Good art and neat architectural design. Plenty of gems here to see.

Interesting exhibits, much more abstract forms of art and the layout of the building is somewhat confusing. We still enjoyed ourselves but probably wont go back again.

Great place filled with a eclectic mix of art! The walker also has a wonderful outdoor sculpture garden that is great when it is warm out!

BEYOND amazing. I loved having the chance to walk through all the art and read about everything. Great place to have a date if you like art!

So much fun to wander around!

First impression was clean, welcoming, and friendly.Wish they had more for younger children, 3-5yo. But overall was pleased with the experience.

Awesome place with lots to see!! The mini golf course is so much fun!!

Who doesnt love big fun and some interactive art?!!! Peaceful, enlightening, and entertaining.#KovoTravel

Cool place. Parking is a few dollars. Lots of outdoor sculptures

My most permitted title for this place is The Deviant Art Interpretive Center.Although they do have some Real art and historic items of a value that are worth consideration and taking the time to study, this place has taken the most unfortunate turn toward making socio-political statements about where urban postmodernism has gone.When given the chance, I prefer to sit in the car and read a good book or simply take a nap.

I can waste hours in this place. They cultivate great modern works and some really awesome videos. If you get a rainy day (or not) definitely worth going. Its a highlight of Minneapolis for me.

Choose 1 exhibit per visit, otherwise the sensory overload will cause your brain to explode. That said love the art. But I do wish they wouldve left the sculpture garden alone. Not too keen on the update.

Delectable! Was lovely exploring around and having quiet time to sit and reflect amongst art

A contemporary gallery and sculpture garden that is a must visit when in town.

Its okay, guess art just isnt my thing. Nice area though

Alright Contemporary Art Museum with some unique pieces. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. My problem is for the money there should be a lot more but it’s still cool to check out.

Ive been a member here for many years and for the most part Im pleased with the exhibit selections and the film offerings. The events are well produced and the renovation of the museum with the addition of Esker Grove has been a thoughtful one. The gift store has an incredible selection of books. I just saw the Adios Utopia (going until March 18) and it was quite good.

Very good place and great exhibits. There is a free exhibition section. The coffee shop is amazing too with a nice view

So much fun. Great atmosphere

Amazing, and diverse collection of modern art. Beautiful building, with a rooftop garden and nearby sculpture garden. Admission seems a bit pricey but when you realize that the experience of this collection opens your eyes to alter your view of the world it is vastly more affordable than a plane ticket. In a fabulous way it made me think. I was able to see events from around the world through the eyes of many others. Truly a great opportunity for all. Let yourself be uncomfortable and broaden your views and question the norm.

This building is really pretty. The outdoor small building that opens up to the sky is wonderful. The tree with the chimes is amazing.

Went to Winter at the Walker and it was a blast! Cant complain with a free campfire, sledding hills, a sauna, and crafting opportunities inside. It was all free. Im giving this 3 stars though because I didnt really understand much of the art that was actually within the museum.

Impressed by the layout and the collection. As a New Yorker, I found it refreshing that there were so few visitors. (Admittedly, it was a beautiful sunny fall day, and a football Saturday.) I wonder what its like here on a grey or rainy day? Probably still uncrowded. Still, I do hope people go, because its great.

Love the Sculpture Garden. Easily near the top of a very long list of cultural attractions, lakes, and parks that make Minneapolis a great place to live.

Loved the artistic talent and the presentation.
