Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

This was actually quite a large art museum, although it was my first and have nothing to compare it to it was pretty cool. We only did the free portion so I can't say how good their special exhibit was bit I imagine it was pretty good. If you come don't bring solid color water bottles, they only ones that allow are clear.

Been here multiple times and it's always fun! Great art collection and rotating exhibits. The trails around the museum are beautiful. It's a great family activity. You'll always leave impressed.

They have a great happy hour. Cheers!

One of the best Museums I have ever been to! Wow I am blown away by the fact that most of the exhibits are free to the public and anyone 18 and under! The Dirty South exhibit is something I will talk about and remember for a long time! I will be recommending this museum for all my friends to come check out. We literally went here on a whim and I’m so glad we did! I took so many pictures but I went people to come and see the rest in person!

My family made the drive from Dallas, TX to Bentonville to experience the museum’s nighttime Listening Forest interactive exhibit…it was amazing! We came back the following day to explore the artwork in the main museum and had a wonderful time. The Chihuly glass sculptures are beautiful, the We the People exhibit is excellent, and the art trails are truly one of a kind. It was well worth the trip and we can’t wait to return!

Truly a wonder! My wife and I had a spectacular time walking the trails, enjoying the art installations, and learning about the area around us. Best of all, it was all free! Do not skip on this if you are in the area.

An amazing place. It is well worth your time to spend a couple of hours walking through the museum and looking at the superb collection of art. It has an amazingly broad selection of artwork so I am sure you will find something that inspires you.

We went for a short period of time so museum got closed in 10 min we went , we couldn’t cover much but it has lot of sculptures, painting to see definitely. We went for trail walk next to museum which was so refreshing.. worthwhile for fall color picture but might be in November

What an amazing place to visit. Something for almost everyone. We were there for the walking paths, but ended up in the museum. Loved every bit of it. Lots of families out enjoying art and nature. Along the walking path were biking paths. Some pretty technical at places.
A must see when in the area.
There on a Saturday. Busy, but not to the point that it disrupted the experience.

The art museum was soooo cool, but the restaurant is a bit misleading. Online it looks like there’s plenty to eat but when I got there, they were out of fries and just didn’t have many options. I just walked the area and went to the museum, which is amazing that it was free but def don’t go to this place hungry or thinking you’ll have a lot of options to choose from. Overall, I’d recommend!!

This is one of the best art museums in the world! They have a collection of American art second to none! From the architecture of the facility to the amazing park like surroundings with nature trails and beautiful Ozark forest, it’s a place where you’ll want to come back again and again - sharing it with as people as you can!
