Hickory Museum of Art 243 3rd Avenue Northeast, Hickory, NC 28601

"The best Art Museum in the northeast! Amazing exhibitions and a wonderful staff! An art museum for any age level! Fantastic art store as well! It is a true gem!"

"Place can be confusing at first to walk through if you have never been before. There are 2 separate buildings to go through and it's well worth the money. The art musuem is free with a donation box at the front of the building. There's a force's of motion portion for kids, and a building that has different types of animals and information. Great place for all ages but geared towards small kids."

"The art museum is right next to the science center, aquarium, and the library, planetarium, and other attractions, I was so surprised at how beautiful the art building inside is, and the fantastic art that they have acquired."

"Really enjoyed. Free but appreciates donations. In the same building as Catawba Science Centre. Very colorful exhibits. Interesting and unique."

"This is just a beautiful facility with so much natural lighting. The exhibits are well designed. As a mother of young children, I especially appreciate the multiple opportunities to respond to and create art throughout the museum. I can't believe it's free!"
