    Such a cool museum with a great variety and quantity of exhibits. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about the different pieces. Plenty of free parking is available. I look forward to coming back in the future to see new exhibits!

    What a great find!!!!!! This was such a great experience to incorporate into our date night last night. It all began by being warmly greeted and then walking us over to receive instructions so that we knew what to do and how to best enjoy the exhibits. It was just mind blowing to see and experience what these Amazing Artist have created. We loved how many different installations there were. The immersive ones made you truly feel a part of the exhibit. The staff also walked around and answered questions or pointed out things to fully enjoy a particular exhibit. We highly recommend this digital art museum. We learned, explored, and experienced a truly enjoyable time.

    I love museums but I was with a friend who was in a bad mood and too cheap to spend 20.00 . Residents get a four dollar break . Here's the scoop on this place . It's a high tech museum and great for pictures I'm told . Mad Arts in Dania Beach, Florida is open Tuesday-Thursday from 12-8 PM, Friday-Saturday from 12-10 PM, and Sunday from 12-8 PM. The museum is closed on Mondays and on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. On Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, the museum closes at 3 PM. Special admission Florida residents pay $19.99 for special admission Annual memberships cost $99.99 per person I will be back with a friend that appreciates art and is not a cheap skate . Parking is ample Don't go on the weekend too .

    This is a great creative arts museum with the exhibits changing frequently. They also hold yoga classes and show films here as well. Many of the exhibits were interactive which was fun and there's an area out back where you can play games like corn hole if you want. The museum features exhibits from local as well as international artists. You can check out their website for more info. I was lucky enough to be there during the IGNITE event (which is held yearly) so there was no cost for admission. I think admission is normally around $20 per person if you buy it at the museum but I know Groupon also has sales on admission for the museum. Parking across the street was free. Staff was super nice and very helpful. There is staff in just about every exhibit if you have any questions.

    Every year I come to MadArts to see the Ignite Broward event. Of all the exhibitions around Broward County, this is my favorite place. Great museum, parking available and excellent employees. Every single piece of art are beautiful.

    Nice rainy day activity

    A rare 4.50 from me wholey based on three experiences specifically. I know that exhibits change there features but if you have a chance to view the woman under water, the Lazer room and the picture walls it will have been worth the short time you spend walking through. A bit on the pricey side but no where near the high jacked price as the exhibit in Miami. You can enjoy this place better with a good camera or family/friend photographer. There is a room that you have to pay extra for to be a part of it the only surprise but we passed on the bubbles. Make sure you take your time in the adult hall/room of mirrors it's a unique stroll. Overall the best part to me was the peaceful music led wall of flowers, under side view of a forest and the pin light body. This is a must stop on your days of events on SoFlo.

    Had such a great time at Mad Arts immersive experience yesterday. It's a great place to go on a date or explore with family. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't crowded. The check in was smooth, the staff was friendly and there was a lot to see and do. I was very impressed. I would definitely go back with other family that frequent from out of town.

    This is a really cool place to visit. Lots of interesting artwork. Plenty of free parking on both sides of the building. They also have friendly guides if you would like to take a tour.

    This was pretty boring unfortunately. Reading the information to the exhibits helped you understand each piece, but they were a bit underwhelming but kinda pretty. Some exhibits were a bit morbid.

    I went there on a free admission as part of ignite festival. This was such a hidden gem. Since I went on the last day of the festival (plus weekend), the parking was full, but I was able to snag a spot. I think the parking space should be more than sufficient on a normal day. They also have a cool outdoor space with exciting cabanas to hang out and eat. There was a burger station with a few food options like hot dogs. Drink menu included beer, wine and sodas. The staff was nice and there was a person at each of the bigger art pieces/rooms available to answer any questions. There were also QR codes at some of the arts which connected to a YouTube video that explained the technology behind it. The museum consisted of two floors. I went at a very relaxed pace and was able to complete the entire thing in 90 minutes. I have seen similar exhibits in Singapore and Dubai which costed a big ticket price. I got a similar experience here for free thanks to the ignite festival and mad arts

    Highly recommend this museum. It was so mesmerizing. My friend and I really enjoyed it . Being able to interact with some and being able to scan the QR codes to hear the descriptions of the pieces . 10/10 experience. The place was clean and smelled good . The ladies in the lobby were welcoming, informative and professional.

    Interactive arts fun in Dania Beach, FL. Discount for FL residence $22.50. The place was very spacious and could hold hundreds of customers but we went during a weekday and only two other couples were attending the event when we were here. Each room had a different themed digital arts set up. The first floor was mostly interactive and the second floor was cool non-interactive arts. Each section had a plaque explaining the art and providing information on the artist. My favorite exhibit was The Hunter, a fifteen minute horror visual motion story. There were plenty of staff walking around to guide you and answer questions. They did not currently sell candy and soft drinks but a kiosk is under construction. The only negative issue was the small rooms were very warm even though the place was empty and did not offer cold water for sale, although they did have a water fountain but you would have to suck out the water from the nozzle since the pressure was almost zero. Very fun place for adults and children and well worth the money. Need about two hours to fully enjoy the experience. The bathrooms were very modern and clean.

    This place was okay. It feels like there is so much more they could do with this place, maybe some more interactive things. The concept and idea is nice, it just felt like you're in and out pretty quickly. The short "movie" out of the paper display was my favorite thing to see. I feel like there are most likely better art display options in Broward or Miami you could visit and get your moneys worth. This isn't somewhere I would really recommend, unless you are really, really, into art.

    Are there any inappropriate art exhibit for children? I.e. Ladies inappropriate dressed....

    No, but there is an art section on the bottom floor that has some odd alien/demon type images. You can skip through that area.

Until now. Located in a preserved, historic building which was built in the 1920s, you might miss it if you weren't looking for it. It's on the edge of a residential area, and just east of Young Circle, so it gets a little lost in it's surroundings, but it's definitely worth exploring. The parking lot is free, and there's also street parking available. Entrance is $10 for adults, discounted for kids and seniors, and free with membership. The Center holds three exhibition spaces downstairs and one upstairs. The main exhibit space is rather large, which you can tell by looking at the current exhibition (ANIMALS), which showcased various media depictions and representations of animals. Behind the main space, there are also desks and drawings from patrons or the students at the school. There is also an artistic garden which may be a lot more enjoyable when the temperatures cool down. I met Joanna who did an amazing job of providing me with updates about events, history, and meet the artist days, which I believe are also free. I will definitely be back to check out other exhibitions and hopefully be able to attend an exhibition opening or two in the near future. If you're looking to improve your cultural aspirations for you and your family, come check out the Art and Culture Center of Hollywood. Be sure to tell Joanna I sent you

Check in wasn't smooth, but the space is definitely much larger than it appears from the outside. The honey enjoyed Environmental Futures III on the first floor and I enjoyed the 'Somewhere I Belong' installation and the community art upstairs, which was fantastic. They also had a piece by a local glass blower Brenna who participated in the Netflix show Blown Away. The piece had an inverted color scheme, but was otherwise a duplicate to the piece she created when she was eliminated. I would have loved to have seen an entire section dedicated to her pieces because beyond the glass and the art upstairs, the general curation wasn't really to my taste. All in all, the service was upbeat and helpful, but with general admission at $7, ($4 for students) I would call the experience slightly overpriced unless you're here under NARM.

The children's activities were truly well done--creative, engaging, and a great way to introduce young minds to the art world. The art exhibits themselves were impressive and thoughtfully curated. Unfortunately, despite these highlights, my overall experience was extremely disappointing. During our visit, my family and I were followed by not just one, but two staff members. It was very clear we were being racially profiled, which made us feel uncomfortable, unwelcome, and deeply disrespected. It overshadowed everything the museum had to offer. We spoke with management to express our concerns and share how this treatment impacted our visit. While we were heard, the experience left a lasting impression--and not a good one. I can't in good conscience recommend this museum to others, especially families of color. No one should have to endure being watched and judged simply for existing in a space that should be open and inclusive to all. Museums are supposed to inspire and educate, not alienate.

We spent about 3 hours with him and left with so much appreciation for what they did. This is an all volunteer museum so make sure to donate! Former President George H. W. Bush Sr was stationed here during his military service, graduated in 1943. There is a room dedicated to him and his time there! Lots of details! He even stopped by and signed a part of the wall! We can see pics of a young Barbara too! There is so much history here! There is a flight simulator training, vintage models/artifacts, uniforms, etc. Flight 19 that disappeared in Bermuda was from here. It is packed to the brim with memoribilia. Gary told us they have so many items, but can't display it all. The museum building is the only original building left of over 200 buildings of the base complex when it was used from 1942 to 1946. This base made a big impact on the growth of Southern Florida and is now the Ft Lauderdale - Hollywood International Airport. They have a private parking lot adjacent to the museum. Definitely recommended!
