Cannot make a reservation if your party is under 4, which is idiotic, considering it is valentines weekend. We arrived and joined the waitlist, told it would be 30-45 mins.

Palmer Museum of Art…read more I happened upon the Palmer Museum of Art while on a work trip and, to be honest, I wasn't expecting much more than a small university gallery. Instead, I found a surprisingly thoughtful and well-curated collection that easily rivals many regional museums. The museum itself is beautifully designed, bright, modern, and inviting without feeling overwhelming. The galleries flow naturally, making it easy to wander from room to room and spend more time than you originally planned. What struck me most was the range of the collection. From American paintings to contemporary works, the pieces are presented with care and clear interpretation, making the experience enjoyable whether you're a serious art lover or just a curious visitor with an hour to spare. For a museum located on a university campus, the quality of the collection is impressive. Several pieces made me stop longer than expected, and the curation feels intentional rather than simply academic. It's the kind of place where you go in thinking you'll do a quick walk-through and end up lingering. If you happen to be in the area, even for work, it's absolutely worth a visit. The Palmer Museum of Art is a reminder that sometimes the most rewarding cultural experiences are the ones you discover by accident. Topped the museum with a visit at the Creameryas recommended by the docent.

I like to visit art museums when I travel but I'm somewhat mobility impaired and didn't have any assistive devices with me, so I decided to just check out the glass art, which was fabulous. Below are pictures of some of my favorite pieces. My granddaughter was with us and she enjoyed the activities in the children's room. My understanding is this is a new building, and there is a parking lot right outside.
