Good size; 2 hours to walk through. Wide selection of art that should interest everyone. Good place to take the kids. Good parking. Cafeteria and gift shop.

So much fun! The art of course was gorgeous! The interactive parts let you travel to another world for a couple hours as well. I went with a good friend a few weeks ago, and I must admit you could of mistaken us for 7yr olds in the child's play area. I now have such wonderful memories from the experience I had here. Thank you, guys!

The museum didn't get me, maybe because I lived mostly in big cities. But I also think the museum didn't concentrate it's resources efficiently, maybe it should concentrate more on local especially mormon and native art which is unique to Utah instead of being small version of huge art museums of big cities.

I had bad memories of museums from my younger years (boring, takes too long), but the UMFA was interesting to peruse. Note that they’re closed on Mondays to the best of my knowledge.

Small building, what I would consider a small collection. But the UMFA makes up for it in interpretive stuff. Everything is written in simple English and Spanish (!) and lots of works have discussion questions associated with them. Plus engaging workshops on 3rd Saturdays. Today I went to a print workshop—they sent me upstairs to familiarize myself with some prints in their collection (Rembrandt, Goya, etc) and then I got to make 3 foam plate prints for free.
