This is an awesome place and a real gem in the city of Omaha. Not many cities of similar size can claim to have a venue of such nice spaces and pieces of art. Many of the galleries are situated connecting to the main courtyard. In the middlle of the courtyard you'll find a beautifully tiled fountain and greenery. This means you can hear running water from most places in the main gallery, a great little design feature. They don't have a ton of stuff but what they do have is well curated and we'll presented. Among the highlights are paintings from Monet, ancient Greek vases, some excellent Asian statuary and a large wooden screen that's been intricately carved and lacquered. The American galleries are excellent as well. I also don't want to leave out the early American Western stuff, including Navajo beadworks. The galleries themselves are neat spaces featuring solid colors with a couple feet of marble at the base, different in every room.
Was a fun museum. I loved the blown glass and the Indian beaded art! Glad I got to see it before they close for 2 years.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entryFree
Great museum to spend a day with family. Spectacular architecture. Marvelous collection of art from different times and regions. Not too big, not too small. Perfect to spend a day to appreciate the collection. Museum also offers place where children can draw, craft, and express their imagination through interactive stations.
I really enjoyed my time at this museum. I like how a lot of that artwork had written descriptions. The art works section, which I believe is designed for children, was very great as well. Very interactive.
It’s a really good place for art lovers. Although a bit redundant in some sections. It’s overall not a bad place to go, not sure most people would like to go twice unless there’s a special exhibition.
This museum is fantastic! The art is well organized and documented, the building itself is gorgeous, and admission is free. The quality of the pieces will stun you. This is perhaps my favorite stop in Omaha, highly recommended.
It is amazing museum.. very clean and well maintain.. Abit of history from Wikipedia The Joslyn Art Museum is the principal fine arts museum in the state of Nebraska, United States of America. Located in Omaha, it was opened in 1931 at the initiative of Sarah H. Joslyn in memory of her husband, businessman George A. Joslyn. It is the only museum in the state with a comprehensive permanent collection, and although it includes works from Paolo Veronese, El Greco, Titian, among others, its greatest strengths are the outstanding art collections of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries of American and European artists such as Pierre-Auguste Renoir and William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
FANTASTIC, FREE ART MUSEUM. This is a beautiful Art Museum in Omaha, Nebraska. Due to Covid, reservations need to be made online, which was very easy. The original museum was built in 1931, thanks to Mrs. Sarah Joslyn in honor of her husband, George Joslyn. Subsequent additions were made over time, resulting in a large, modern Art Museum. We spent 2.5 hours at the Museum, and enjoyed every minute. The Museum is beautiful, clean and has a lot of staff available to assist visitors. Another vital staff function is to monitor for visitor compliance with wearing masks for Covid- this is strictly enforced. The Museum Cafe and Gift Store are currently closed due to Covid. WELL WORTH A VISIT!
The architecture of the building is great. Perfect small museum so close to Creighton. Garden really nice in front and sculpture garden too.
This is truly a gem... The museum itself is a work of art: Attractive, unique in style, and set in a peaceful lovely and inviting garden of sculpture and flora, like a diamond high up along Dodge street. You feel drawn in to see more. And you find yourself welcomed upon entry. There is plenty to see but not to the point of overload. Very enjoyable and eye- opening!
