    Super friendly. Beautiful collection. Absolutely worth the stop! Took my Wizard of Oz loving mom…read moreand she had the best time.

    **OVERALL REVIEW**…read more The Wizard of OZ Museum and Van Gogh Experience, which I will shorthand simply to the Oz Museum, is one of those unique attractions that stand out simply because of its uniqueness in an area you do not expect to see such an attraction. But this is Florida (my beloved state I love so much), and it should not be weird to see a surf museum (Florida Surf Museum) nearby the dinosaur store and museum (literally called the Dinosaur Store). But it works because the Oz Museum surely highlights so much from the Wizard of Oz franchise, not just the movie, but the entire lore inspired by the amazing book written by Frank L. Baum. I would have waited until later to post this review up, because there is one more "experience" I need to watch through-and-through in the Van Gogh Experience, which is the projector experience of traveling through The Wizard of Oz, but there is new news pertaining to this locale. The Oz Museum is moving south to Cocoa Beach. Not only that, it will be near the Dinosaur Store. How wonderful is it that two of the quirkiest museums Cocoa Beach has will be next to each other. Ergo, this review is for the Oz Museum as they are officially in their "Final Weeks in Cape Canaveral" before they move south to Cocoa Beach. For starters, the Oz Museum is located on the westside of A1A a.k.a. Jimmy Buffet Highway, at the northwest quadrant of its intersection with Center St., the street that leads westward to the dinky Center Street Park where one of the five bat houses of Cape Canaveral are located. The Oz Museum is actually "small" pertaining to the price one must pay to enter, which is about $32 plus tax for adults. Military and seniors get a discount and children are about half that price, but still, that can be considered steep for entry. But if you truly take your time with this location and engage in all they provide, it actually fair price. Most people would probably just breeze through all the exhibits, including officially recognized items that belonged to Frank L. Baum, signed books, and just a collection of all Oz related things from one family's personal collection. And yes, it is a personal collection, but it is an amazing personal collection with, as mentioned earlier, official items from certain locales, which I must stress "certain locales." For example, the display featuring the winkie guard spear has items that were officially used as props in the classic movie starring Judy Garland. The ruby red slippers on display, many mistake as from that movie, too, but those are actually the ones that were displayed in the line/queue of the Great Movie Ride in Disney's Hollywood Studios while the ride was open. It should also be noted that each glass panel of the collection has a QR code for an audio tour. Ergo, each panel will have a recorded explanation and history of everything that is on display. That is why I say the price is justified. And let's face it, a museum like this, despite how quirky it is, may become "boring" for little children. Ergo, there is a children's room with the animated Oz movie playing on loop and plenty of books, puzzles, and games to keep their playful minds occupied. Finally, the Van Gogh Experience is just an "added bonus" on top of all you get in this museum. The projectors put you in the midst of an amazing animation detailing Van Gogh's life, which lasts about 20 minutes on average. Seeing his paintings come to animation life in a room that is about 75 feet by 25 feet (estimate because the room was constantly darkened for the projectors) was just relaxing, especially when Starry Starry Night appeared. There is also a projector experience going through the entirety of The Wizard of Oz, but I never got to finish it. Ultimately, the Oz Museum is a worthwhile experience to go to, but I am only giving it four-out-of-five stars because this experience, as it is now, will soon be gone, and a new experience will be available very soon with added features such as a boat ride (and possibly mini-golf). From what I got the couple of times I went here, it is definitely worth checking out. You can't go wrong with a museum that is featured as it is highly-rated among many categories on TripAdvisor, including number one for kids museums.
