Beautiful peices and a diverse collection that lets you go back and take a look at American history and the cultures that built us through an amazing diplay of art.

It's OK at best. I think it's pricey for just basically 1.25 floors of art and you're done in a couple of hours, even taking your time. Chicago is $25 and you can't see everything in one day. Cleveland is free and there is more to see. And, why does everything have to be Charleston-centric? It's almost like they don't want it there if there is no connection to Charleston. But, we have an inferiority complex in South Carolina, and we always have. They have tons of room, and they need to utilize it with more art, particularly more European art. The few impressionist pieces they have are very good, in my opinion. The bird sculptures on the 3rd floor are good, particularly the rooster.

An all time great art institution. Outstanding permanent collection focusing on regional Southern art. Excellent collections of miniatures, woodblocks, & The Charleston Renaissance. Brilliantly curated shows as well!

Even if you stay only an hour, at 15 dollars it's one of the most reasonable priced places downtown. Good sculptures and local art are the strong points. Lacks a national and world depth.
