I called the museum 4 different times. I have been trying to get ahold of someone to see if they have what I need for a school project. Three of the times, the phones directed me to a full voicemail. The 4th time, I got ahold of someone named JUDY and she immediately hung up on me as soon as I said hi. I heard the phone slam. Im trying to see if they have what I need before I drive over there. Forget it, if thats how they answer their phones then, Ill go somewhere else. Rude as hell..

Honey this aint the Met. But very worth going to see, especially if someone who interests you is showing in the featured galleries. When we were there they had two temp shows and both were excellent. My guest from out of town had a really good time. Be sure to check out the upstairs collection, in which hides such gems as a Dali intaglio. Take the stairwell up, there is art hiding there too. Their gift shop is fun and has nice stuff. We look forward to future events.

The museum is amazing but the employers are even better. I had a problem with a paper and Tom print it out for me. It was like my Xmas present. Without his help and that paper my last day around Lakeland and Florida would have been terrible. Thank you so much for your understanding and behave.

Really wonderful to see something like the students of Rembrandt shown in a midsize museum like PMA. Thats the kind of thing that makes a midsize museum stand out. Figures in American Art and the association with FSC are also brilliant. Go museums!

The museum has a wonderful display of students art that never fails to amaze. The Material World is fascinating and makes a fine contrast to the contemporary art displayed downstairs. I love the friendly staff and the treasure-filled store, too.

Really nice selection of art though wish there was more to view. When I visited, seemed to have mostly art by local elementary students. Currently theres a HUGE graffiti exhibit that is a MUST SEE!

Embarrassing. They need more art. Ive seen better from a third grade class. I dont like to dis a museum of art but wow. So sparse. So bad. The store was great. The graffiti artist was cool.

Current gallery shows include The Figure in American Art and a collection of graduates of Rembrandts Art Academy (who are Dutch and Flemish Masters in there own rights.) A must see!!

Adam Stow

Free, but not a lot to see. Real great exhibit on the second floor of a worldwide family survey and photos. Hope they finish the other two galleries soon.

Took a lady friend there to look around. There were no hockey games or football games. on so I left. If it werent for low class Id have no class at all.

Really enjoyed this hallway the most! Learned more on other countries! It was an eye opener, & really made us feel blessed to be Americans!

Loved the women impressionist installation. The Hunger project took me by surprise - loved seeing how other cultures live

My daughter received a 2nd place award for her tag art! It was amazing, so were all the people and the museum was awesome!

Small. It was free though. I am planning on going back without the kids so I can look at the pictures at my pace.
