Beautiful! I came here because it was a class field trip. The experience was great! I absolutely loved the art that was shown to us by our tour guide. The art has amazing symbolism and the way our tour guide explained it was great. She was also very nice. I was never bored here either! I recommend coming here if you're into seeing great pieces of art!
Princeton's Art Museum is a small, quiet little museum. When I visited, you couldn't bring in water bottles, so most people "parked" theirs in the coatroom until their visit was over. I didn't worry that someone would steal my unattended coat. The Museum's collection is modest but interesting. Princeton's campus is beautiful and there are many cool restaurants and shops right nearby.
Surprisingly nice for a small and free museum. A good collection of art and ancient artifacts. If you have younger children it probably won’t keep them occupied for more than an hour; adults can easily spent a couple hours or more, depending on your level of interest.
Great place to visit. Amazing exhibition which changes often. It takes around hour to see all halls. There are restrooms, wardrobe, locking boxes. And this place has no fee to enter, but you can always make a donation.
A wonderful museum, free entry. But a donation box is available for you to show your sppreciation. This museum adds value to any Princeton day trip! They will be enlarging the building in near future in order to have space to display an even larger percentage of the Universith's extensive collection. Do visit again in the future, if you have already been!
This is small but wonderful museum. You are going to see splendid collection of ancient, medieval and american fine art. Visitors are allowed to take non commercial photos without flash light. It "must see" place during your visit to Princeton.
Excellent permanent collection -- especially the world cultures on exhibit downstairs. Also, seen several outstanding traveling exhibitions in the front gallery. The building itself is well-designed, a very fine place to view the work.
It's a very complete museum! It's huge actually. You wouldn't think it's that big when you see it from the outside. It has all types of art you can imagine from old to modern art. You will easily spend 2 hours here enjoying their vast collection. And it's free!! And whenever you go take a walk around princeton University, It's beautiful.!
Excellent museum on the campus of Princeton university. Nice early and contemporary European art. It has no admission fee. Family can visit and children can learn to appreciate the arts for free.
Princeton's art museum is open to the public and free! They've got a great permanent collection. If you can catch the temporary Nature's Nation exhibit, it's awesome. All the photos attached are from that exhibition.
