While it's not a massive space, I absolutely loved the collection of Hirschfield pieces. Some truly iconic pieces of art that you won't find anywhere else. Great spot to spend an hour two strolling around along with plenty of space to take a seat and relax. Surprisingly busy. Arrived minutes after they first opened and there was already a small crowd inside.
FREE admission. FREE lockers! Clean spacious bathrooms.
The paintings by Polish-American painter Morris Hirschfield were wonderful.
The elaborate work of patterns featuring women or animals reminiscent of textiles caught my eye. I also like the color of the artist's work💛
Small, excellently curated museum. It's free, so definitely worth a quick stop if you have half an hour to kill
For the amount of space they have, they have used every inch well. They are very good with being covid safe. You must show your covid vac. Upon entering you will find an informative description about the exhibit. There are many interesting weather vanes and you will actually learn some interesting things about the vanes!
