First stop is the theater on first floor to get a brief history of Dalì. Then elevator to third floor for the exhibit room and a virtual reality headset experience (comes with admission just a short line waiting for one of the three seats). The gallery was very busy, but we managed to wave around the people to see the art in the main gallery. Oh wonderful then across the other side of the museum was a special exhibit with Giacameti sculptures and Dali. Then we were out to the dome to see the projected media experience for 35 minutes. It was such a fun afternoon spent three hours and probably could've taken a couple more. That was a nice café. I went on to try in a great gift shop worth visiting. Really wonderful experience I highly recommend it to anybody that's familiar with Dalì's work or just learning. They do a great job explaining it all. Tip get admission tickets online in advance. Line was out the door so I bought tickets while standing in line then zipped thru the other side for folks with tickets. Saved me 15 minutes! Also from the desk I could buy the Dome multimedia ticket before it sold out. Fantastic day at this museum!

We had high expectations for the North Pole Express at the Florida Railroad Museum, but…read moreunfortunately the experience was very disappointing. The weather was extremely poor, which significantly affected the event, yet it still went on without any real adjustments or consideration for guest comfort. Long waits in the cold and rain, general disorganization, and a lack of clear direction made the evening stressful rather than enjoyable -- especially for families with children. The overall experience did not come close to what was advertised or priced. When we reached out afterward, customer service was slow and unresponsive, and a refund was denied despite the circumstances. The alternative offered was a future-use gift card, which isn't helpful if you're unable to return. To make matters worse, the amount offered didn't even match what we actually paid. Between the event itself and the way concerns were handled afterward, this was a frustrating and disappointing experience. We would not recommend this event based on how it was run and how customer issues were addressed.

I was amazed it was two floors and had an elevator and restrooms on both floors. There is oodles of circus nostalgia and lots of history to read about.

All in all, a great way to spend a few hours, and you even get popcorn on the way out. There is a cute gift shop in front.

That said, I was extremely impressed on so many levels: *police presence/ security: unfortunately the reality, even before October 7. Thank you St. Petersburg PD and security *this said, there is a strict bag policy, only clear bags. There is limited locker availability, so leave the big purse, etc at home *just the right size. It took us maybe 90 minutes ( or less) to cover the entire museum. Not too much to get bored and: or miss exhibits *excellent flow/time line; of course I'd only expect historic accuracy, but the coverage of certain areas oftentimes minimized of ignored was very much noticed: DP ( displaced persons) camps ; Shanghai Jews; difficulty returning "home" post war ( the Kielce pogrom-- my father's z"l hometown) *local survivor artifacts: letters: photos: commentary, etc, really personalizes this subject and is likely to reach more visitors An actual boxcar snd tracks, the real boat---go visit for more details-- the best way to learn *thank you for having a Dimensions in Testimony exhibit, created by the USC Shoah Foundation. This amazing technology allows interaction ( direct questioning) with a survivor who appears to be answering your questions. A MUST *great exhibit on loan from the Skirball Museum ( LA), my old home, and very relatable to museum goers on so many levels *another exhibit ( shirt but succinct) on Elie Wiesel. If you don't know who he is, you definitely MUST visit this museum *a nice gift shop full of Judaica ( mezuzahs, menorahs , kiddish cups, bracelets, lots of books, t -shirts, and other novelties.

First an explanation the Arts and Crafts Movement was a movement that started in the UK, then spread to the U.S. and elsewhere. 1870-1920 more or less. Architects, furniture designers, potters, tile makers. Think Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Tiffany. The displays at this museum are curated intelligently. Lots of explanations and connections drawn that I would not have considered otherwise. And there was focus on the surprising number of women who were potters or designed and made lamp shades at Tiffany. Our St Pete friends said the restaurant is quite good. We didn't try it. And here's the lagniappe: our museum membership at home got us into the Arts and Crafts Museum for free.
