A bright and energetic display of contemporary and modern art. It stimulates the brain. Corona distancing is practiced. I found it to be a nice quiet enjoyable evening.

My first experience at the museum was almost perfect. The art was exquisite and beautifully displayed. The layout of the museum is wonderful and it has attractions that cater to everyone. My only negative comment is regarding one particular employee. Most of the employees were very helpful and friendly, but one in particular followed my party and I uncomfortably close throughout our entire experience. At one point she was so close to me that I couldn’t even step back without bumping into her. While I understand that it is the employees job to watch the museum and make sure no one touches or disturbs the art, my party and I did nothing to warrant us being singled out and followed throughout our entire experience. She followed us through every floor and even followed us up onto the roof and watched us the entire time. If it were not for this one employee, I would have given a 5 star review. I encourage the museum to educated their employees on how to properly do their job without making viewers feel unwelcome or uncomfortable.

Very nice and educational, i always bring my kids in this Museum they give free color painting for kids and teaching them to panning gold, they have story time for kids too. Very nice staff and the museum is really nice. They have a small restaurant you can eat too.

There was a very good selection of pieces that had much room for interpretation. My very artsy kids (15, 13, 11) and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were able to truly appreciate the art on display. I will likely return for a membership.

Me and my Wife were here by chance on the our way fro Lake Tahoe to Edmonton !!What a nice collection of art, great ambiance and way it has on four floors!!We really appreciate, the Front desk ladies whose grace in welcoming us in to museum touched our ️s!!! A perfect example of openness of US society!! thank You, ladies, for turning our evening in to life long remembrance in Reno!!It was 1st Thursday’s September, so we drank, danced and met so many nice people from Reno gentry! The unknown ( to me) singer was so nice and lovely!! I clicked a few snaps with her, got my Reno T autographed by her!!Lively orchestra was brilliant in their thump and dance inspiring presentation!!Thank you all, in Reno and NMA

Always enjoy coming here. I like the choice of art on display here. The themes are often related to environmental conservation and raising awareness about important issues related to caring for the natural environment. We got a tour from a docent this time and it definitely helped to put things into perspective. Dont miss this if you visit Reno.

Theres an eclectic display from a private collector right now, with some Andy Warhol and a provocative Kehinde Wiley. Just had a short amount of time to spend, but well worth the visit!

Absolutely Amazing!!! Every second Saturday of the month is free, and they have guided tours, crafts, and live performances as well as thoughtful and ever-changing exhibits. A must-see in reno, family friendly, and fully wheelchair accessible. The rooftop views of Reno and the mountains are breathtaking and the staff s very helpful and knowledgeable. Stop by the gift shop for one-of-a kind Reno souvenirs and art post cards :)

Really awesomeness me building. Great selection of artwork and really nice staff.

Loved the twinkie exhibit, it was such a beacon of joy in these dark times. we were afraid we would get kicked out for laughing too hard

Very awesome place! I went there for a field trip before and it was so good!

A few spaces were closed for a new exhibitions but still a lot of great art here. Love the architecture and this would be a great place for an art class or unique meeting, they have a classroom and a few meeting room areas. Love the outdoor terrace! All the staff was polite and helpful and amenities are elegant and unobtrusive. Space feels well organized and efficient.It was dumping rain so I didnt linger in the outdoor sculpture but I love the outdoor plaza area

It was interesting, they are open even in the Covid-19 times. The art was interesting.

Out of the bleakness of the pandemic, the Nevada Museum of Art brought tranquility, intrigue, and mischief in a socially distanced way... paradoxically privileged because of the staggered visits. So many artists, such varied media, and such sensitive displays. Make an appointment, make your day.

An amazing museum with wonderful works of art! Thank you for carrying our products!!

Never have I in my life been exposed to Twinkie arts. I think Im becoming a fan.

Not a huge museum, but the art work is very nice. Good view from upstairs. We didnt eat at the restaraunt but it looked busy. The gift shop had some cute items. There isnt a lot of parking but you can park and walk if you have to.

Patronize the Arts if youre able.June 2020; great exhibit of American Art some of the pieces are borrowed from the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Artists featured: Jean-Michel Basquiat, Edward Hopper, Robert Rauschenberg, Grandma Moses, Georgia OKeefe, and more.

If you have an eye for art, you will be at home.Otherwise, its ok

Good museum to visit while in Reno!

Great Museum. Lots to see. Lots of information. Have fun.

Interesting exhibits, helpful representatives and Docent. Fabulous food at Chez Louis restaurant in the Museum.

This little museum is chock full of fascinating exhibits. A mixture of Nevada history, eye popping wall art and wow! 3D. Bravo to the curator/curators! Proves you can find gems everywhere; not only at the Met, the Louvre, etc

Had a lovely Sunday brunch at chez louie. Great staff, wonderful music, good food, friends, & art!

Beautiful views and gorgeous building. Lovely art and very reasonable prices. Great place to take kids

I visited this museum for the first time while in the area for a snow vacation. Its quite a nice museum. The Anne Brigman show was by far the most comprehensive one Ive seen of her work and was very well put together. I was impressed by how well it was done as Ive visited museums all over the would and this show rivaled any. The museum itself is not as big as others and therefore there isnt much space for much other work besides the main show. Good views of Reno and the mountains from the observation deck. The cafe was high end and very tasty but with commensurate prices. Live music in Cafe was very good too.Well worth a visit.

Interesting eclectic collection. Tipsy wedding guests from the 4th floor rental space added a little spice to an otherwise quiet visit. Still dont like Rothko.

Add this cultural institution to your list of must do places in Reno, Nevada. On the edge of the dynamic and artistic Midtown neighborhood, the Nevada Museum of Art offers the beauty of permanent art, revolving exhibits, as well as sculpture outside, inside, and on the rooftop terrace. The bonus is the view of the mountains from the terrace as well as the thoughtfully curated museum store and the open floor plan cafe.

Its fun not many people there

Beautiful four story museum with a fantastic diversity of different styles of art. I definatly enjoyed the interactive art pieces they have. The night that I went there was an awesome turn out for a local concert. I had a wonderful time.

Its an art gallery and Im an engineer, but your wife will like it.

Great museum! I had some downtime after a photoshoot (Im from Portland OR and was in Reno for the shoot). Love the layout and the various galleries they had set up. Awesome place to use up a few hours.

Overall, I was impressed with the Nevada Museum of Art. The museum is very well-maintained, the staff are very friendly, and the exhibits on display when I had visited in early May 2018 were more impressive than I thought. The museum consists of four floors, and there is a good variety of art. The front desk had recommended starting at the top floor and working my way down each floor until I hit the first floor. The top floor didnt have a whole lot to see, but its nice to be on the roof on a sunny and clear day. The bulk of the art is on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Most people would probably spend between 1 to 2 hours here. Although other museums might have a bigger number of art pieces, I still thought that the Nevada Museum of Art had quality pieces. General admission is $10. I did not get the chance to visit the cafe, but I overheard some generally good things about it (though, I cannot personally confirm). Id rate this at 4.5 stars. If your standard for museums are larger museums, then I think most people would rate this 4 stars. Otherwise, I think this museum is 5 stars. Because I fall somewhere in the middle, I give it 4.5 stars (but 4 stars on the Google rating scale since it doesnt do halves). I wouldnt necessarily consider the Nevada Museum of Art someplace to go out of your way for, but I think its certainly worth a visit if youre in that area. Even more so if you have an appreciation for art.

Staff are very professional yet friendly. Very clean and open. Displays were well planned out. Look to the floor for the number representing the display.

Nice building, very varied collection.

Small but full of wonder. Many of the galleries were closed when I visited, but I loved the focus on American art and technology. Its too bad I missed the other exhibits, but I genuinely enjoyed what I saw.

The Australian original people a beautiful Memorial poles for the Dead I am done very intricate gorgeous

We saw the lion display and the decorative arms. It was beautiful.

A neat one! We loved our visit.

Never disappointedThe staff is always friendly. The building and grounds are well kept. The exhibits change often enough to make membership well worth the price.

I LIKE THE NV MUSEUM OF ART,BT ONLY IF THEY HAD CELEBRATED ALLI BIT OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH

Went to see the Anne Brigman exhibit which was amazing. Love this museum and its 4 floors of magic

Beautiful Building and always great Art on Exhibit.

The history in this place will peak your interest. Its a small museum but the items make a big impact. My grandchildren had so many questions about all the things there. I was so pleased to have their minds working overtime. The gentlemen at the front desk know alot about Sparks and Reno. Dont be affraid to ask! I learned alot from them!

Came for the OKeefe exhibit that featured her style as well as paintings.I am so glad we saw the Jack Malotte exhibit. It was powerful, touching and inspiring.

Fabulous. The showing of Georgia OKeefes art and photographs of her were breathing. Thank you.

Amazing art pieces. Loved the roof view. Took some great pictures.

The exhibits are limited, but nice. They have free parking and a nice gift shop! Theres an elevator, which is great, because the building is four stories and the stairs ate brutal if you have difficulty walking!

Definitely one of the less impressive art museums I’ve visited. The layout was fine, but there was no “direction,” if you will, through the museum. The art was random, and very little of it was striking. I had higher hopes for the state museum. Don’t get me wrong, my boyfriend and I enjoyed just walking around, observing, and reading. Like I said, it was just not impressive for me.

Great museum! There’s a very interesting Burning Man exhibition, with lots of information about its history and evolution, as well as a 20-minute film which basically sums up the exhibition. The rest of the museum was also very informative and well laid out and there was also a terrace on the top floor which gave great views over Reno. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the museum is very reasonably priced. A definite must-see when visiting Reno!

My wife always describes our museum as small. But they have an amazing collection. They host wonderful touring exhibits. And they curate a wide variety of art exhibits.

Amazing exhibits of a variety of art in all kinds of mediums and styles. Well worth the time and effort. I can truly recommend visiting the museum any time of the year.

We love our museum! They bring in top line exhibitions, and it has a very open, bright floorplan. Everyone should go.

We just had our company holiday party here and it was just perfect! the Hors doeuvres were amazing! And the dinner was even more amazing! Crab stuffed sole and peppercorn sirloin steak was a great combination! The staff was super friendly and attentive, and there is such a beautiful view of the city out on the patio! I really enjoyed this company party more than the ones that are typically at casinos!

Small museum but really well done. The exhibits are decent. The top floor has a beautiful space for receptions, parties, ect. with a beautiful view!

Small and intimate with its audience, the NMA continues to bring world class art to the Reno area in well designed exhibition.

The are work was so amazing as well as the people

Its wonderful to have a museum in our community! The newest exhibit on the art of guns us amazing.

This museum is nice in that it offers a variety of art and is really fun to go to for special events they host. I like that they often have Nevada specific exhibits. One of the exhibits I saw last time was the Nuclear Landscape. I enjoyed that and how there were photographs that were beautiful, destructive, and tied to history all at the same time. It wasnt an exhibit that I thought would interest me, but in the end it drew me in. I like that about this museum. Theres always something for everyone and its easy to get pulled into art you normally might not look for. I also like the new rooftop area and the restaurant! I saw they do a happy hour at the restaurant too.

I am so glad we have a nice little art museum in Reno. From to bottom this museum is amazing. The exhibits never disappoint. Even better, they have a whole array of art classes that are taught here. If you are a member you get discounts on classes and the gift shop which is pretty cool.

Depending on the exhibition...but overall very educating

I loved the exhibitions going on. The architecture of the museum inside and outside. Great location surrounded by coffee shops and restaurants. A lot of place to park.

Bringing culture much needed in Reno. Was well worth the 10 dollars any day. God bless the Nevada Museum of Art!

I attended a college event at the Nevada Museum of Art, and unfortunately left my purse there. However, they were incredibly nice about it, responded quickly to my alert, kept it in a safe, and tested the person picking it up. Great security and great staff! (Also great art and unique events!)

View from the roof is a must see. Photos dont quite do it justice.

The exhibit about the weapons and lyons was amazing. They have such good shows. The restaurant has a nice menu and vegetarian friendly.

This place is really GREAT! Today was free admission day, but even if Id had to pay full price ($10), it would have been well worth the price of admission. Parking was OK, the layout is a little confusing, but its rewarding to get lost in this place, with fascinating art around every wrong turn you make. Very fine!

One floor was closed for a private event, no discount on the admission for this. It was our first visit to a museum. We enjoyed the pieces on display.

Amazing collection. Not a lot of actual paintings, but the screenprints and other works of art were great. Museum was nicely setup. (I mean, it really depends on which artist is featured when you go to the museum). Overall, good experience and nice staff.

Love the museum shop. Great souvenirs for kids and grownups. Didnt have time for the exhibition though :(

Great views from the top floor giving a good view of the city. Fantastic art work that includes a variety of modern art. They also participate in the BoA free museums on us program. Fantastic staff that were extremely nice.

Nice place to visit. You can spend a couple of hours here. Parking is convenient.

The art we saw was great. However we went to see the Georgia OKeefe exhibit and the only part that was available was her camping supplies. Oh they said, the art work isnt up yet. Since we had driven 90 minutes to get there we werent real happy. If you are going for a specific exhibit I would call and see if the advertising had been correct.

As always, a trip to the museum was a wonderful experience. Today, as part of Art town was, Reawakening the Great Basin: a Native American arts and culture gathering.. it was so beautiful and the art and demonstrations were amazing..I love this museum.

This museum is great for those who love art and sculpture. Its clean, modern, and showcases work from artists of all different backgrounds. Some of the exhibits are really creative! There are also discounts for students and groups.

Great Sunday brunch$$$. Service is wonderful. Make a reservation before you go. We ordered the smoked salmon crepes. Great exhibits. Wonderful gift store.

I went here as part of an extra credit project with my high school age daughters. We were hesitant at first thinking it would not be anything special. The employees and volunteers made it a fun and informative trip. We spent many hours and ultimately bought a pass. It is well worth the visit and should be better known in Northern Nevada!

Delicious brunch at cafe. Live music. Ample street parking. Family friendly. O Keeffe. The exhibit is outstanding!!

Mostly just kinda Meh. Ive been to Lamer mesuems that were more interesting. Barley got the 10$ admission worth

I really enjoyed the fine art on display. So glad to see such talent from local residents also.

Nice little art museum. Many workers always watching you - a bit creepy.

Fun, supportive, and welcoming staff, with fun activities for kids and amazing displays

Little guy enjoys being able to do different things at this place

The Georgia OKeefe exhibit was an interesting glimpse into an influential and dynamic artist. We didnt have time for anything more, but I enjoyed learning about her. My father, however, was disappointed there werent more of her paintings on display as it had many more photos of OKeefe herself than her works.

Gorgeous facility. The staff was wonderful. Even made special accommodations for me to feed my little on in privacy.

Amazing I got to go back to see there new rotating exhibits

Wonderful museum. They get new exhibitions all the time. Fun place to spend the day. See the museum and have lunch downstairs.

Its a small museum, very tastefully laid out. I recommend going there! $8/seniors

Nicely done always. Great exhibits

When I was there, there was a light snowstorm and it was a great experience for me.

A great little Museum that Reno is proud to have as part of their community. Diverse and fascinating exhibits flow through the spaces, providing a rich, cultural offering to our area.

Loved the Burning Man exhibit. We visited often this past year and enjoyed it very much.

Nice ... Love it too...

Loved it

I always love visiting this museum! It has such amazing collections for a small Art Museum and the fact that they showcase so much local talent is amazing as well!

Outstanding! I shall return in the future.

There honestly just wasnt much available to see. I went on a date there and we saw everything in about 30 minutes.

Enjoyed the restaurant inside. Didnt visit the museum.

The Nevada Museum of Art was an interesting experience. The admission felt a bit high by the time i finished my tour. I will say that the entire place was immaculate beyond all else, even down to the restrooms. This place would pass any white glove inspection with flying colors. The top floor has a lookout deck area that over looks mid city which is pretty cool. The exhibits themselves were definitely artistic and fou but we d on every floor, but the entire place felt a bit empty. It didnt seem like there were many exhibits on display and a couple of the guards made my friend and me feel a bit uncomfortable with the way we were followed. But overall we had a pretty good time.

Special events Great place to find Art and people in the Reno Artist community
