This is the coolest art museum I’ve been to in a while. The best part about it, it’s completely free! They have so many different pieces and time periods to browse through. This is place where you’ll come back multiple times to get through the entire museum. It’s highly recommended if you’re in Cincinnati!

We went for the Night event & Silent Disco. It was amazing and all the exhibits were free, even the special exhibitions which makes it even better. Always a fabulous time, but this was really cool! We’d never been to a silent disco, 3 different stations to click through, each lighted a different color on the wireless headphones. It was fun to see everyone dancing to different tunes, even funnier when you take the tunes away and watch in silence! hahaha.

Visiting the art museum is always a great indoor and outdoor activity. We park at the bottom of the art climb to enjoy the walk up and to see some amazing sculptures. Plus you'll get in some added exercise. The art room is so fun to play in and my kids love making the crafts along with the take home crafts.

Great museum. Polite staff and interesting artwork. I love their changing exhibits. It's always a fun time going here. I've been almost a dozen times in my life. They have a great program for children to get involved in making art work. I can't wait to stop by again. It's a great place to go no matter the weather. Very reliable hours

We visited on the weekend in which the museum was sponsoring the "Galloping Through dynasties" special event, the admission was extremely reasonable for such a well executed event. My understanding is that there is usually no admission charge. We arrived around 1 on a Saturday and only saw about half of the exhibits. The floral arrangements were beautiful and well done. The museum has a great variety of art, that cover a wide spectrum of time in US as well as world history. I highly recommend spending more than four hours to see all of the exhibits.

The Cincinnati art museum is free! Donations are always welcome! I love visiting our local art museum, because it's probably one of the most beautiful buildings, as well as the art inside... They have a cafe that serves food, a gift shop, and free parking.. What a beautiful place to have a wedding or at least getting photos done here.. They always have new exhibits.. They have elevators and a gorgeous grand staircase!

Excellent Art Museum! They have a lot of different pieces from different periods, building was grand, gift shop was nice, they are happy to assist and have an art area for kids to create their own! It's a really cool place!

Amazing museum that has free parking and free general admission. My friend got married and had a reception here a while ago. There was a lot of amazing artworks and artifacts here that come from all around the world. Would definitely come back and also take a walk to visit mt. Adam’s nearby. Eden Park is also very beautiful and close by too!

Terrific free Art museum. 2 floors of art in a beautiful environment. Nice Cafe and an awesome gift shop too! Take a selfish with Pinnichio in front of the museum!

I did not plan on visiting the Cincinnati Art Museum as I had limited time in the city. However, when I had time to fill before heading to the airport, I snuck in a quick visit. I was only able to spend an hour in the museum, so all I saw was the "Paintings, Politics and the Monuments Men: The Berlin Masterpieces in America" exhibit. I was so glad I made time to visit. I have studied the history of the Monuments Men before and many of the artists included in the exhibit. I loved seeing them next to one another and reading more about the politics revolving around these artist masterpieces. Make time in your schedule to see this unique and powerful exhibit. The museum and grounds themselves are also beautiful and well laid out. I will return to see the permanent collection if I ever find myself back in Cincinnati.

Museums are meant to preserve the legacy of humanity. Serving to enrich people and provide an experience that enlightens people for generations. And I truly feel like the Cincinnati Art Museum has enriched my life having experienced it. This museum features a wide variety of over 67,000 works and I made it a goal to focus and observe every piece I possibly could. It took me all of 5 hours to get through the entire collection, and I didn't have time to fully appreciate every single piece. But, needless to say, this place was truly mind-opening for me. Just looking at the time-span of over 6,000 years from which the art has come from is awe-inspiring. Also, I can't forget that the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The museum was very clean and I can tell they have been taking immaculate care of the building.

Wonderful Great place to bring the kids or for a date! They often have new pieces and collections, and very helpful volunteers! Really beautiful building I love to take pictures here. Always worth the trip.

We visited this museum 5 years ago and couldn't cover all of it so went back today when they were open till 8pm. It's amazing that general admission is free. It's awe inspiring. Very well maintained. Polite staff. Make sure you wear your backpacks in the front or on one shoulder so that you don't bump into art work. They have clear restrooms too. Will definitely go back in the summer.

I love that they have an endowment to allow for free admission. It’s incredible to have open access to such amazing exhibits. I could have spent so much time here, but we were with family and Dad had a plan. We’ll be back next time we visit Cincinnati.

We visited on the weekend in which the museum was sponsoring the "Art in Bloom" special event, the admission was extremely reasonable for such a well executed event. My understanding is that there is usually no admission charge. We arrived around 1 on a Saturday and only saw about half of the exhibits. The floral arrangements were beautiful and well done. The museum has a great variety of art, that cover a wide spectrum of time in US as well as world history. I highly recommend spending more than four hours to see all of the exhibits.

It's an amazing experience worth the visit when you're in Cincinnati. Especially when the entry is FREE!! The cafe and lawn is amazing to relax and work at your own comfort. They had different events going on at every corner of the the museum to keep everyone entertained kids as well as adults. The musicans, artist and the staff work effortlessly so that you can have a wonderful experience at the art museum.

A lovely museum with a busy cafe and a small library on the third floor. It is nice that it is free to enter, and the exhibits are are all wonderful! The library has a cool balcony with a great view and it is a quiet place to read. There was a small disappointment with the “try it yourself” exhibits being removed, but we had fun with everything.

It is a beautiful museum with a vast selection of paintings, sculpture and fittings. It had a lot of commissioned work that was very unique. It was a bit mazy to walk through but I still managed to navigate it. The staff were very helpful and nice. I loved the Black and Brown Faces: Verified exhibition a lot. It offers free admission too.

One of my favorite places in Cincinnati!! The staff does an amazing job bringing the coolest exhibits to the museum. Pictured was when their Georgia O’Keeffe exhibit was in town. Perfect timing for my moms 60th birthday weekend! The staff is always so helpful in kind when you enter and keep the museum looking wonderful. The small gift store is always fun to explore after wandering the museum! Don’t forget to take advantage of free Thursday evenings at the museum. Any ticketed exhibit if free on Thursdays, you just need to reserve a timed ticket! You can do this online before going or you can walk in and gamble to see if there are any spots open when you arrive!

One of the best museums I have ever been too, not just the art but the experience they trying to create is just amazing. Guests can develop their own tour map of the museum, engage in interactive education about ceramic, stained glass, etc I just love the museum so much. Please donate if you also enjoy it because it’s free!!!

Lots to see at the Cinci Art Museum. My favorites are by the Impressionists. Keep an eye out for their special exhibits. They have some good ones. There is an area for children to craft. I like to stop by the restaurant for lunch and /or a glass of wine in the outdoor courtyard. They have a lovely gift shop that is top notch.

The Charles White and Native American glass art exhibits were exquisite. Free admission on a Thursday evening. Cincinnati, do you realize what a gem we have in our midst? (Sorry, no pics of Charles White's works, was too blown away to remember to grab my phone.)

We were in Cincinnati for a short weekend trip and decided to checkout the Cincinnati Art Museum. The drive to the museum from downtown was a great start to the day. There was a great view of the city and the neighborhood streets and homes added to the experience. The Museum grounds were also amazing and got us excited for what to expect inside. The admission to the main portion of the museum is free. You only need to pay for the special exhibit if you decide to. We had a great time viewing all of the collections and it only took a couple hours at a leisure pace. There were many items with ties to the local area or artists that made the collects more interesting. I would definitely recommend the Cincinnati Art Museum when visiting Cincinnati.

A wonderful museum with carefully selected thematic collections by period and genre. The small museum with a very cozy atmosphere. The museum staff are very polite and respectful. I highly recommend this museum to all art lovers.

We were visiting for the first time and it is wonderful. So many nooks and a vast selection to view. Plan to spend some time and really see the collection. There is electric parking and a terrific selection on the museum gift shop. We had great help as first time guests and recommend it to all. Sunday afternoon was free. Call ahead to find out if the time you are here is paid or free time.

Our wedding at the Cincinnati Art Museum was an absolute dream! Our event coordinator, Katie Mitchell, was so professional and wonderful to work with. We loved having our ceremony outside in the courtyard and our reception inside, the pictures turned out incredible! The pricing was also more affordable than we thought. I would highly recommend having your wedding here!!

I went to see a special exhibit. The entrance to the whole museum was free. There was a reasonable fee for the retrospective exhibit of Driscoll, an African American artist. His work was amazing. The museum was not crowded (though the main parking lot was full - I’m not sure if the was a secondary lot - but a car pulled out just as we needed it. They have parking for electric cars! So recharge as you need to! Lovely place….can’t wait to go back and explore the permanent collection. Here are my favorites:

This is a wonderful place to spend hours immersed in beautiful historical creations from paintings, pottery, and period pieces. Mask is required. There is some hands on interactive; however it would be nice to have an audio component for those that would like to hear about the history rather than read.

Great museum! It truly represents the historic culture of Cincinnati. It also had modern art section. They might add Modern Jewellery section as well in upcoming months. Overall, very nice experience. Must visit.

One of the best places in Cincinnati. Free, except if you want to see a special exhibit. Clean. Most of the staff is friendly. But not altogether knowledgeable about the art as most of them are volunteering. But it is a beautiful experience.

General admission is free! This museum is a lot larger than it looks from the outside. Every time you enter a room, there’s a new room connecting to it. A very relaxing place to come and enjoy some beautiful artwork.

Wonderful museum hosting a great and unique touring exhibit while we were there. Only knock against was the "art walk" didn't have much art on it, but the exhibits inside were incredible. Also, free except for special exhibits so you can't beat that price! Even the tickets for the touring exhibit were reasonable. Highly recommended!

This place has so many different pieces and artifacts from different time periods. And great displays of art as well. So many different rooms to explore. Definitely come here early and explore the whole place. Best of all it is Free!

I love this place. The free exhibits are BEAUTIFUL. The paid exhibits aren't expensive and change out quite often. I love going here to read and relax and the lake is super close as well in Eden Park. Will be returning over and over and over again. Tons of parking, wheelchair accessible, a little restaurant with coffee inside in a little outdoor area.

This is a great art museum with vibes that change with the rooms. Not a lot of the "iconic" artists, but beautiful pieces nonetheless. And features a lot of Cincinnati / Ohio features or artists. Wish I had the time to climb the exterior stairs... looks very cool. Would definitely recommend.

Sadly, I didn't get the chance to go inside due to scheduling and having a gig in Akron later the same day, but I wanted to check out some of the outside sculptures on the way. I was very impressed with what I saw outside and it made me really want to check out the inside. Loved the 12 foot Pinocchio statue!!!

It took me a bit of walking but I did manage to find the exact gallery that I wanted. This is a large museum and I was very pleased with the artwork. As well, admission and parking are FREE. Warhol, Chagall, Picasso, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Monet, Pissarro. I'm in heaven. I spent an hour with just this bunch of my favorites. Thank you, Cincinnati Art Museum!

Maybe next time, I did not get to go inside but I did do the art climb and walk parts of the trail. I did not know how beautiful Cincinnati is in general. I am glad I stumbled into this great city and this absolutely magnificent museum, beautiful art area, nature. I am not sure I made myself believe this city would be an awful place with no beauty at all. As a sports fan and play I conditioned myself to hate teams and locations for the love of my team. For the love of sport I am glad I have stepped away from blind hate and have stepped into willful appreciation. The things you find when you enter enemy terrain and seek to learn from those we view in opposition. I am stuck in a dilema destroy something beautiful to spite my enemy or preserve the beauty and look to mend fences. The choice is easy… war, riot, yell, argue fight. I must shame, defame and send authorities to shut this place down. Follow the example of our political leaders our countries parents and adults, they set the example to justify my bad behavior. Pictures don’t do it justice go see for yourself. I picked the Pinocchio statue because my friend Korean Butters on YouTube. Pinocchio teaches us we can be who we want, the world is ours, if we can break free from the strings and control of those who we give our power to. Met people traveling all the way from Miami just to see it for the 5th time, things we do for children. Come for the Reds, stay for the Museum. Baseball season gives you plenty of reasons to be bad and good. Pinocchio teaches the choice is ultimately ours.

Great experience at this art museum. It's free to get into the general exhibit and then some amount of money for whatever they're featuring at that time. We'll laid out gallery with fun explanations. Plenty of parking and great map to guide you to what you want to see.

You don't need to be an art expert to enjoy art. This Cincinnati Art Museum brings back to the past world of cultures you've never experienced or thought about through the art pieces. You'll find a new appreciation of what living is all about. Moreover, the special exhibit on Picasso was fantastic. It's almost like you could hear his thoughts, even voices, through his work. I felt much closer to him now. I loved the visit.

Thank you for the free admission! The special exhibits had great pieces. Charles White, AH-MAZING!!! The cafe food and service were okay. There was construction of a special exhibit causing lots of sound at the main entrance. Security personnel were only awkward when they paced so quickly from room to room, whistled and leaned on banisters. The restrooms are clean (seem a bit small for those who may need more room). The driveway and parking are nice and easy on a Tuesday. There’s a beautiful view of the city next to the museum.

Free entry is hard to beat. Artwork by many names you know, Warhol, Picasso, Monet, Manet, etc. Some local and modern art. Some ancient exhibits from Egypt, Greece, China, Native Americans, etc. Rotating paid exhibits as well. Big and well laid out, but not too crowded or overwhelming. Ample parking.

We really love this museum — it’s a beautiful, accessible place to walk around and see wonderful art. Every time I go I see something there in a new way. Our family particularly appreciates the Sensory Saturdays each month, too. (Always-free admission and free parking is also a big plus.)

Exceptional collection from various time periods. Elegantly displayed, building had so many unique architectural details. Relaxing quiet time in galleries. Easy parking, friendly staff, great gift shop.

The museum is a treasure in the heart of Eden Park! It's worth a visit for Cincinnati natives and tourists. The museum has free general admission and welcomes donations. We saw the Picasso Landscape Exhibition, and it had timed admissions tickets for $12 Seniors. There were still tickets being bought day of visit and no one was hurried to rush through in a certain time. We spent close to 2 hours viewing artwork from different phases of Picasso's life. The display is very open and well curated. Electronic monitors reminded visitors that this is priceless artwork, so keep your feet three feet from artwork, and don't touch!

General admission is free, which is amazing. I recommend coming to check out the galleries. I hadn't been in a few years, but was excited to see new pieces on display. You can learn about ancient art or view pieces in their contemporary collection. There were a few "wow moments" as I walked through viewing the art. I also enjoyed the decorations throughout the museum for the holidays.

Really interesting place! I loved getting to visit here, so many interesting pieces to see and interactive portions. This is a museum that you could spend a short or long amount of time at depending on what you want to see/do. I myself could spend all day there! The layout of the museum was slightly confusing, but what museum isn't. There seemed to be an event going on and a lot of children were present and making a lot of noise. Even though this is obviously a free place to go I think that's something patrons should be notified about. Overall, I really loved my experience and would be glad to return!

I visited the Cincinnati Art Museum for the first time and was blown away. The museum was much larger than I expected, it's two floors and took us about 2 hours to get through. General admission is free, but there are exhibits that you have to pay for admission. Parking was also free. I got some really cute handmade paper origami swan earrings in the gift shop, too! Definitely check out this museum if you're in the area!

Nice art museum. Free admission except for special events. Good range of traditional and modern art. Large open spaces with nice places to sit. Small gift shop. The cafe is good for a quick bite.

Did an impromptu family get away. This was an amazing adventure we didn't plan but greatly enjoyed. The art was amazing and had something for everyone in our family. My children are 8 years apart and it is not often they agree on anything. This was one thing they both could enjoy and appreciate. Loved the fact it was free which is amazing for a family of four.
