Great spot to see local art, low cost entrance, kids creation space, and lots in the gift shop. While visiting the city, I stopped into this art museum. The cost for adults is $7 which is a great price. The ground floor is a packed gift shop with many kinds of items: books, jewelry, cards, toys, local craft, etc. Prices were typical for an art museum gift shop. On the second and third floors they had just newly opened exhibits. (There is an elevator or stairwell.) I got to see exhibits for David Gunn Sawyer and Lonnie & Twyla Money. The former had a series of wood pieces painted and sewn together into 3D tapestry looking pieces. I loved the textures. The other exhibit had a range of their folk art craft. I enjoyed reading about the historical pieces from the Money family and examining the studio recreation pieces.

The quality of he exhibits was outstanding! I really enjoyed the Shapeshifting exhibit because it reminded me of the felt art my grandchildren used to make. I thought the Pastiche of Good Intentions and Other Parties was eye catching and beautiful. Highly recommend!

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to KMAC. Masako Miki's Shapeshifting exhibit featuring felted wool sculptures brings a whimsical element to organic shapes in an intimate installation that can be enjoyed on many levels. KMAC's gift shop is a great place to pick up gifts with an artistic flair.

Enjoyed our recent visit. Hadn't been in a few years. It used to be free and now they charge $6 per person, which is completely reasonable. Loving their current whimsical exhibit that goes till August. There's a small kids activity area. The gift shop is excellent. You can take a quick survey of your visit and get a coupon code to use in the gift shop. Only reason for 4 out of 5 stars is that parking is never convenient downtown.

We came in for family fun day. We hadn't been before so it was a great time to go as it was free. My kiddos enjoyed the interactive hands on activities as well as the scavenger hunt (okay..so did I- I'm a big kid lol). The sculptures were simply amazing. As we all love art, we will definitely come back again.

Friendly. Helped me get my caffeine fix before they closed. Solid bean flavor.

What a cute museum! This was my first time here and I really enjoyed the exhibits they had :) I also liked the store they had on the first floor as well as the creative area! This is a great place for families and anyone who wants to enjoy art! Oh and the place does have an elevator so it's accessible to get to the second and third floor! Also, students and children are free and adults and teens are only $6!

Really cool little museum with very well curated exhibitions. The gift shop is great too.
Very cool. Small - took maybe 20 minutes to walk through. However I really liked the art in here. The gift shop had some quirky items too which make good gifts. I definitely recommend a stop in here as you are walking around. At only $6 the size and price felt just right.

Smaller museum in clean, modern digs. The staff are super nice and they are taking the utmost precautions during COVID 19. Modern art. When I went, they had a very good exhibit on southern artists featured in the book "Walks to the Paradise Garden." They also had an exhibit from a local Louisville artist. Neat gift shop with lots of upscale fare.In the past they had a Picasso exhibit and other thoughtfully, well curated shows.This is a great museum to see over an hour or an hour and a half. It's not overwhelming and worth a stop. You may see things here that you won't see other places.
