Skylands Museum of Art 15 New Jersey 15, Lafayette, NJ 07848

"This is a beautiful museum filled with wonderful, enjoyable art that really gets you thinking. Some pieces just took my breath away - either by the emotion they stirred or the sheer skill and artistry of the creator. Some are fun and whimsical, others are bold and forceful. All are a delight to see!"

"Loved our visit to this museum! It has a mix of imaginative sculptures and paintings with animals, friendly monsters, dragons, mermaids, fairies, and mythical characters. The museum owners are also so friendly and open with sharing the stories of the art!"

"Was just there recently with the family and have to say, what an enchanting museum. The eclectic exhibits are unlike any art museum we've visited. As the curator, Aileen, explains, "Each piece has a touch of myth, magic, fantasy, and fairy tale." There's a room dedicated to fairy tales which the kids will love. And my personal favorite are the pieces by Aileen herself of what she envisioned would be the result if the Baba Yaga ate other famous artists. Hilarious and creepy at the same time!"

"Amazing experience! We were greeted with an extraordinary collection of sculptures and paintings, each telling a unique story about some aspect of humanity, and collectively immersing the visitor in a fabulous world of rare imagination brought into being by talented artists. From the graceful forms of creatures both real and mythical to introspective human figures and flowers, the exhibits echo the intricate dance between life's mutability and artistic expression. Skylands Museum of Art is not merely a museum; it's a sanctuary where art, nature, mythology, and humanity harmonize. And… there is an outdoor sculpture garden which provides a perfect space to find a quiet place to relax among some unique, whimsical sculptures."

"Such a wonderful experience! Aileen is both a welcoming host to the gallery as well as a truly talented individual! There's so much to see throughout the whole museum- and we didn't even get to see the outside works yet because of the snow! Couldn't recommend this place more. A great way to spend the day."
