Speed Art Museum
What people are saying
Great museum. Blew away expectations. Can spend up to 3 hours there if you take your time and see everything. I would assume most people can do it in 2 hours. Great mix of art forms both new and old. Modern and classic. Modern building and large open layout. Impressive.
We had a great time. The building and art surpassed my expectations. There was something interesting for everyone to enjoy. I loved talking with my teen about the pieces he found interesting. I definitely have to go back because I realized on the way out I'd missed one area and my kid wants to go back when the cinema is open. We spent about 3.5 hours there. I really enjoyed the South Asian exhibit and reading the descriptions about the art. I've never seen art from India. It was very cool to get a peek into the culture.
Great museum with art across many genres. A glass exhibit, some African and Native art, local Kentucky artists, the usual European artists, etc. Something for everyone. Parking is not free and a few galleries are closed for renovation.
We had an amazing experience at the Speed Art Museum. The selection of art is outstanding covering history and many cultures in various mediums. The museum is beautifully proportioned and compliments its exhibitions making touring a delightful. If in Louisville,the Speed should be on your list!
Good museum! A little small for the price, but still a good visit. Loved the local collection and artists during our visit in Sept. 2021
