"Very nice museum that's not huge or crowded. Very clean, safe area, free admission. We parked at a public lot a few blocks away (library lane, lots of spaces). And we really enjoyed seeing the vintage artifacts. Open the drawers under many displays for more to see."

"Amazing place to visit. Small but intimate collection of Babylonian, Egyptian and Roman artefacts. And they are very transparent about their origin which is very refreshing. Would highly recommend for a quick refresher about ancient history. And it is free which makes it irresistible."

"We were required to wear a mask which was slightly annoying (even my 6 yr old) but wasn't really a big deal. There was lots to see for my teens and my little one. There was only about 8-10 other people there so not crowed at all!"
