Reviews
"During my last visit to the Cummer Museum, I was captivated by the exhibits showcasing Impressionist art. Wandering through the vibrant gardens after, was such a calming experience. Love to be back so soon in here!"
"I LOVE the garden. There are new blooms monthly and plenty of seating to stop and enjoy your surroundings. Tuesdays they are open later and the garden has lighting throughout the walk ways. I definitely recommend seeing it during dusk and night time hours Beautiful view of the river. The museum always has great new exhibits every few months. The permanent collection is lovely. Even though I’ve seen it several times I still notice new things about the pieces. Plenty of restrooms. There is a cafe has indoor and outdoor seating. I have not tried the cafe yet but menu looks great. There is an artist that will perform music and/or singing in the cafe and you can still hear them quietly throughout the art rooms. Plenty of free parking. Don’t forget to walk around the outside of the building. To the right there is more parking with painted murals and access to the river. To the left where the large red double rings are there are a few bronze statues along the walkway next the the cafes outdoor seating"
"The quality of this place is enviable. A true mix of an art gallery and an art museum. The cleanliness, size and variety of exhibits in the place are impeccable. The visit lasts around 3 hours, as the photos come out wonderfully, due to their paradisiacal scenes. One downside were some gardens that needed repairs, but all in all, it was well worth the visit. It has a kids area for children to play."
"We love the discounts with Museums For All, allowing SNAP card holders to visit the museum for free. The gardens are gorgeous and the galleries are full of beautiful and interesting things. Great for all ages. There's lots of seating around and the outdoors seating is plentiful too. Not too crowded and very quiet and peaceful. didn't go to the museum cafe this time but would try it some other time."
