This was my first time to the Harvard Art Museum and I loved it...it's so big and varied. You can…read moreenjoy paintings from masters as well as interesting culture from the ancient times. There are many docents and security people around in case you have questions. The main benefit is that it is FREE. The collections include approximately 250,000 objects in all media, ranging in date from antiquity to the present and originating in Europe, North America, North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, East Asia, and Southeast Asia. The museum has a large collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works that contains many famous masterpieces, including paintings and sculptures by Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, and Vincent van Gogh. The main building contains 204,000 square feet of space for public exhibitions, classrooms, conservation and research labs, and other related functions. Just a great way to spend a few hours if you are in the area.

My wife and I stumbled into Harvard Art Museums without even planning it, and it ended up being one…read moreof the best surprises of our trip. The fact that entry was free made it even better, but what really stood out was the incredible collection inside. Seeing so many famous paintings that I recognized from textbooks growing up was honestly amazing--it felt surreal experiencing them in person. The entire museum has a calm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to take your time and really appreciate everything. Definitely a hidden gem and an experience we won't forget.

What a treat it was to be able to see this in my lifetime and to spend some time on the grounds of…read moreHarvard University. So much in this museum I don't think you could possible see the whole place in one day. We spent 4-5 hours here and may have seen 50%. I so wish I lived closer so I could take it all in over several visits. The mineral and rocks area especially drew lots of my attention and I spent way too much time there and slowed us down a good bit. It's was so freaking cool though! Giant wads of gold and precious metals everywhere. Things I have never seen. Wonderful things! Also.... They have dinosaurs and so many cool things. Glass flowers, ancient artifacts, rare finds from around the world all housed in the historic University of Harvard campus. Check out my pics. I even have one where I am the last link in the evolutionary chain, LOL. Totally worth a trip here if you can. So many wonderful things to see!! '26 - 29

I came for the glass flowers and they did not disappoint! It turns out that access to the glass…read moreflower exhibit also permits you to access the Peabody museum, the taxidermy exhibits, and the glass sea animals. I was most impressed by the glass exhibits and the entomology collection. I only wish they had a little more information on how the glass flowers were maintained and created, I learned a lot from asking a docent but I'd love to see more info! The taxidermy smelled a bit strongly but was very interesting! The Peabody exhibits were interesting... I was most amused by the Fiji mermaid and the "stickball" exhibit (wtf)!

Our almost 3-yo could do most things, but I think even a kid in the low-elementary grades would have a good amount of fun here. We found 2-hour parking along the side of the Cambridge Common; most of the rest was resident only. When we visited in the summer, there was a porta-pottie nearby.
