My family and I enjoyed our experience. Nice art and the garden area is beautiful. They have the most beautiful oak tree that is massive. Also there is a nice view of the River.
One of my favorite arts museums in the Country. Why, because it is so easy to get to, never overcrowded, and the museum isn't so large that you feel overwhelmed by the size. The garden in the back is so peaceful, a nice place to walk, and take in the St. Johns River and Jax skyline.
Great museum. We stopped by during our quick visit to Jacksonville before we headed back home to Tampa. We loved the garden area the most even though it was super hot like it always is in Florida during summer 😂. Nonetheless a great time for all ages and art enthusiasts alike.
I’m a yes on this one. Although I felt that the gardens could have used a bit more TLC, all in all, the place was great. There was a very broad collection of artworks in the galleries and of course, the gardens were lovely. I was pleasantly surprised to find works by Lucas Cranach the elder, Thomas Moran, Thomas Cole, Winslow Homer, and even Norman Rockwell. Whatever your taste, I’m confident that you could find some gems here.
We love the discounts with Museums For All, allowing SNAP card holders to visit the museum for free. The gardens are gorgeous and the galleries are full of beautiful and interesting things. Great for all ages. There's lots of seating around and the outdoors seating is plentiful too. Not too crowded and very quiet and peaceful. didn't go to the museum cafe this time but would try it some other time.
Amazing museum with alot of history to jacksonville and full of beautiful paintings, statues and wonderful works of art.
Has a play area for kids to enjoy and the gardens are a site to see.

This is a beautiful place. My first time here, and I hope to come back. The gift shop has exquisite items and I succumbed to a beautiful silk wrap that I couldn’t resist. So much to see here. On this day, the flamingo topiaries were spectacular. Conversed for a prettier Experience. The grounds are wonderful.
