The 2nd floor includes a lot of interactive exhibits and displays and is geared primarily for kids. Not much for adults. The third level includes an outdoor terrace. The weather today was not conducive to enjoying the outdoor environment. Adults- allow 1-2 hours. Adults with kids - allow more.

I thoroughly loved all of the displays, the view of Manhattan from the rooftop, and the educational and enjoyable immersive theater. Do not miss the 15 minute theater experience where they engage all of your senses to learn about the Flint Hills. It's worth visiting Manhattan just to explore this place.

This time, we ended…read moreup in Manhattan for a KSU Car Club meetup and actually met Doug the curator of this wonderful place as he was hanging out with everyone. We had planned on visiting again with the rest of the family and mentioned it to Doug. He happened to be there (MWDCC) this morning for a bit and showed us even more cool things we hadn't learned the first trip. There are some amazingly special cars here that absolutely everyone should see!! The updated Tucker section was just so cool. They also added a full BTTF DeLorean to the collection in addition to the original one they had! They even have a Lamborghini Countach like the ones every boy my age had posters of on their wall growing up. Too many more cars to mention.. The people that work and volunteer here are so friendly and so helpful that I honestly can't even begin to do them justice in this review. Doug, you made this trip something special for us on many levels!! Thank you!! I'm excited that my daughter has 'found her people' and she will probably end up volunteering here some too when she has time. Just go here already!! You won't be disappointed.

Loved the diversity in artists, but wish there was more informative history about the artists or work. There was only a sentence or two about most pieces and it didn't really give me the background or meaning the piece was telling. Parking could've been a little clearer as well as I didn't know if I was in the correct lot or the student one which does get ticketed.

When I visited, there was a modern photography exhibit, a small exhibit displaying 1800s Kansas art, a small exhibit showing some pottery (I didn't really go in here so I can't tell you much about it) and a really cool exhibit of 1930s art and posters from the 1930s labor period. All of it was cool, but considering the space issues, I wish the museum would focus on one or two exhibits that were a little larger and more in depth.

It was breathtaking. We saw a van Gogh exhibit similar to this one in Las Vegas, but the Picasso presentation was superior.

On the third floor was a wonderful display from various artists which incorporated the patrons looking at the art. Very cool. I almost liked the third floor better than anything. It was magnificent. There's a little art studio up there for people to experiment and play which also has the coolest matchbox collection I've ever seen. This is a true gem. We can't wait to return.
