Love, love love this museum! Very accessible to students. There is a locker room to store your food and belongings before going to view the exhibitions. The museum also hosts a lot of community-centered events. Will recommend donating using the donation boxes across the museum.

Wonderful Free Museum. The African American art exhibit was beautiful, emotional and inspiring- I’m glad to see this exhibit featured. I would plan an hour to walk through the whole museum, up to two hours if you are reading every artist statement. There is an elevator.

One of my favorite art museums. An eclectic collection that has something for everyone. And it's huge! Every time we think we've seen everything, we walk in to a new and unexplored room. A really great way to spend an afternoon in Madison.

Not big on contemporary wing, but an awesome collection of ancient pieces. Loved amphora and roman era coins; Greek and Egyptian items. Landscapes and other beautiful paintings from 15th to 18th centuries, much more. Highly recommended.

Perfectly sized and free to visit, the Chazen Museum of Art is conveniently located among the UW campus buildings. Plan to spend 30 minutes to an hour at most. It's small, but it has some unique works.

It's free! Donations are optional and encouraged though (I would probably just drop like a five or a tenner). It's a great place to explore a variety of works including paintings and sculptures across cultures. There's Asian, African, European and American works spread across three...Read More
