Reviews
"Had an amazing time! They had dogs there from 12-2 of a breed I had never heard of. I learned a lot from that. Then I got to explore the exhibits and learn about every breed registered through the AKC. For an adult with an interest in dogs (like me) it could be a multiple hour activity, just by looking through the breeds. Highly recommend!!"
"Affordable and wonderfully curated. The artwork is beautiful and spans from the 19th century to current day. The interactive exhibits are fun and engaging. It ends with a library and a coloring area. You could spend about an hour or longer for longer."
"Love this place! Its has a wide variety of art featuring dogs. The dogs are all very cute and a wide variety of dog breeds have art. I love the machine that tells you what dog breed you are most similar to! Highlight of my experience! I sent pictures of dogs to the machine haha Some interactive activities to learn more about dogs like their origin and their present situation and they have a large library to learn about certain dog breeds Needs more corgi art! And plushies!"
"This is a beautiful little museum piled with touching paintings, photography, and sculptures. If you're an art history buff, I think you'll have a great time here. I wouldn't totally recommend it for kids, as this is more of an art museum, and there's not a lot of interactive exhibits and it's also on a smaller scale. Still, I am excited to see this museum grow, and it was so fun to take my mom here while she was visiting."
"A beautiful homage to man's best friend! A perfect little location to wander around and look at the beautiful paintings, sculptures and photos of our canine companions. It was a $15 dollar admission per adult, but well worth it if you are a dog lover! There's a place on the upper level for a brief interactive experience with a virtual dog named Molly, as well as a library and place to color in some pictures of dogs with colored pencils! A great experience for anybody who loves dogs, and a great place for a quick family trip"
