Stopped in to see a new exhibit. Nice facility, great evening.
Very small and undergoing display change on the day I visited, so I only saw a small section of the collection. Nevertheless, the entire campus is covered in an incredible array of sculptures, making it worthwhile to walk through the rain to view them all. The sculptures' positions are marked on a map in the museum. Nearby visitor parking is accessible.
I was very pleased to see such a variety of art displays. The knitting exhibit was fascinating, with a waterfall of yarn int eh back room to bring attention to climate change around the world in and overwhelming display. There were some interactive exhibits and a beautiful video about the mural painted on the smoke stack farther back in campus during 2020. It is clear that art is an important aspect of this school and is values by the staff, students, and administration. My only comment is that I wish there would have been some more information on the statues. They were very interesting and I would have loved to know more.
Very small, and on the day I visited, it was going through exhibition change, so I only got to see a tiny portion of the collection , however, there is a truly impressive collection of sculptures scattered around the whole campus that is definitely worth walking in the rain to see them all! There is a map of the locations of the sculptures at the museum. A visitor parking is available near by.
This is the hidden gem of Collegeville.
