Metal Museum

"Free museum so I stopped to walk around. Large sculptures outside. Nice view of the water too. But go inside to see more beautiful metal work. Jewelry, iron work, sculpture, art. Many items available for purchase. Worth a look."

"Fascinating museum devoted to the art and craft of metal working. There are working crafts people who are extremely knowledgeable and glad to talk about their work. It's not very large, but extremely worthwhile to visit"

"Kind of a hidden treasure in town. Small museum inside mixed with a nice area outside that is right by the river. Interesting history behind a lot of the early blacksmiths that ties in with the Civil Rights history in Memphis and other areas. Worth a visit for locals and visitors."

"What an incredible jewel of this city. An amazing place to see awesome art and sculptures and learn what people are doing with metal. There is a casting room, a blacksmith shop, and several buildings with exhibits. Savannah, James, and Jake did a great job job sharing about the casting room and blacksmith shops and were super engaging. I was able to watch Savannah and Jake poor aluminum for a small dish and prepare the mold and everything. Very cool. I can’t wait to go back."

"Small intimate museum located in two old, restored 2 story buildings/homes plus a small outdoor sculpture garden and gazebo. There is also a detached building where craftsmen work, they were very friendly and engaging, willing to answer questions. Whole visit took 1 hour even with us taking our time perusing the gift shop, which was a bit pricey with more higher end, gallery like items. Worth checking out once!"
