Currently under renovation, so I didn't get a good, representative experience of it. They've got an exhibit on Henri Matisse on right now, and I discovered I don't really care for that, so it was a bit disappointing. But they do have some nice glass sculpture on display. I'll have to come back when the renovations are finished.

Really poor. Few exhibitions, boring sketches. There wasn't a single painting when we went. Not suited for all audiences. Nude, topless photos in one piece of 'art'.

Love this small but wonderful museum. Excellent and interesting exhibitions of varied media and styles.

The CMA is a great local spot to visit of you are coming in from out of town. They have different spotlight artist shows that you can check out and they have a great assortment of other pieces of art upstairs. You can have a guide walk you through the exhibits or you can opt for an electronic guide and wear headphones... Or you can just interpret it all for yourself. I like the variety and the many options that they have.
