Knoxville Museum of Art 1050 Worlds Fair Park Drive, Knoxville, TN 37916

"Great space. 3 floors. Wonderful art and exhibits. Free tickets and parking. They have a cozy gift shop and a kid friendly area. They even have several statues outside. Across the street is a small park for kids. Enjoy."

"Local art gallery, but doesn't have a large collection. I disliked how the staff followed people into every room and watched you. Maybe they have issues with people touching the art? It's not to the level of The Mint in Charlotte, but it's a cute local place. Looks like they had a lot of school groups and kids to come in. Exhibits were short, the entire visit took about 30-40 minutes. If you are looking for something quick to do, this is a good option."

"The museum was absolutely lovely! We had such a nice time. The staff was incredibly friendly and had a great sense of humor. I would definitely love to visit again. My kids loved it, they also found the elf on the shelve. Thank you !"

"We go here often. It is a fun, free experience. A great place to spend some time. Close to worlds fair park. Staff is very friendly."
