"Excellent presentation and layout. It’s both educational and enjoyable."

Very good museum with convenient parking. The architecture is grand, the scale is enormous. Admission is not free but the prices and reasonable and the generous with discounts. The exhibits are carefully curated, well presented. The attendants are very diligent about any kind of backpacks. This is a world class art museum with informative explanations. On one of the exhibits the accompanying explanation invited the viewer to follow up with Google Lens.
