Most of the works were by contemporary artists. Each piece had its own story. There were many interesting titles.A piece I discovered at this museum led me to visit the Daniel J. Evans Library, located 30 to 40 minutes away. It was quite an interesting art journey.

The exhibit was really interesting.The hot house is always informative and fascinating to see how they work with glass.Don't forget the theater running a loop film highlighting talented artists.

This museum only needed an hour of parking, but it was nice to have a shaded lot. This museum had showcased glass and Native American art and more. We very much enjoyed the exhibits and would recommend this place.
