Walker Art Center & Minneapolis Sculpture Garden

We had a great time with the kids today, the staff there was extremely friendly and helpful, especially with the children. They were able to help navigate throughout the museum and were very insightful on the exhibits. The sensory rooms that they have are pretty good for the children that help them to be able to relax in between going to all the different exhibits. They do an amazing job catering to the needs of the kids, especially knowing that a lot of the people coming in there will be coming with families. I was definitely pleased to see that, with working in special education, I definitely know the benefits of the children having that in between all of the walking. The ability to cater to kids drives the interest for children to pursue art. I will definitely be going again sometime soon with the family and would recommend anybody getting out to go see that as well. They also have mini golf as well as the sculpture garden right across the street.

I’ve been wanting to come to this museum for a while! I went here after a nice brunch in the area, and love every second of it. Beautiful art. Quiet place! If you have EBT you have free entry. There is a parking ramp with a charge of $8. A amazing place and I definitely recommend. Someone took the time to explain the museum to us, and where everything is. Offered our kiddo a pencil and paper to write and color on. Told us about the kid areas around the museum where you can have a quit stop with your kiddo to color. You absolutely cannot touch the art!

There was a worker who almost grabbed our kiddo when he touched an art piece, which was the only con. Overall everything was good.

The outdoor sculpture garden is great and completely free. The exhibits at the Walker shift so it feels like a new experience each time. The restaurant Cardamom was excellent!

If you are a fan of modern art, the Walker is a must visit, but even if you are not a fan, do yourself the favor and just walk through the outside exhibits. They are always thought provoking and the view of the Basilica and downtown Minneapolis is hard to beat.

Lovely experience to just walk through the galleries and see some nice art. Spacious, accesible, never felt crowded. Make sure to go on the free Thursday nights for extra bang for your buck!

Very nice if you are interested in the modern art. Possible to spend time outside as well. I am happy to be able visit there.

The layout is funky and confusing, causing you to double back or otherwise miss some art. Lots of different types of art on display. Some felt very amateur and then you turn the corner and there’s a Magritte or Picasso. We were probably there a little over and hour and saw everything without dawdling. Would’ve been more worth the money if it wasn’t so hot out & we could’ve enjoyed the sculpture park part.

The cafe looked popular outside of museum visitors. No food or drinks AT ALL allowed in the galleries.
