We spent 4 1/2 hours in this museum and still didn’t see it all so allow plenty of time. The museum is actually two museums, a newer architecturally interesting building that houses modern and contemporary art and an older, seven story building that houses indigenous art from the Americas, Asian art, European and America art. A nice touch is the artwork from current artists that is intermingled among older art so that visitors can view how the artists have stayed true to their cultures while adapting the art to their personal visions. Several very nice seating areas for reading and researching are located throughout the museum.
The museum is accessible.
The best time to visit is on the weekends when there are no school groups or government workers and parking spaces are easy to find. We parked in a lot on the corner of 12th Ave. and Acoma Street. The entrance is very tight so wide RVs may not fit. Metered parking, free on Sunday, is available along Acoma Street. The lot is $5.00 a day. Street parking is $1.00 an hour per space. Museum
