First enjoy the interesting story & ship drawings at the top of the entrance stairs. Nice selection of art organized by category. Some special exhibits. Good gift shop. Convenient to Marriott hotel & River walk.
If you are traveling or live near Augusta, Georgia, you need to spend some time at the Morris Museum of Art. Check ahead of time as they have a lot of thing going on during the year in addition to the current exhibits. For its size it is a wonderful place to visit.
This is anie museum with adecentarray of moderninterpretive art, went toa spanish jazzperformance, they could improvethe acosutics but overall a nice place to enjoy the visual and audioarts
The Morris Museum has some of the best Southern art! We always get an email when they get a new exhibit. The staff there is super nice, and they even have strollers for the little ones. Well worth the trip.
This art museum is surprising eclectic in the variety of artist's work on display. It is just the right size that someone using a walker or cane can make it though; plus there are places to sit and enjoy the art. I find that I quite like to sit and just look at a piece of art for a while. There is an elevator from the parking to museum. Thus parents with strollers or folks with wheelchairs can easily enjoy this unsung treasure in the heart of Augusta.
An excellent venue for an afternoon of strolling among an extensive collection of regional art work.. The facility is well maintained and the staff is friendly and accommodating..
Unique place but the security guard follows you around like you are some sort of criminal. It kind of makes you just want to get out of there more than enjoy the paintings and take in the history associated with each one.
The Morris Museum of Art is the premier museum of Southern Art. The collection is superb and the programs for members is exceptional. The print fair in January is a very special event with one of the kind prints and print makers. The Gala, the first Friday in March, is the most, coveted fundraiser in the area. Beautiful museum for everyone.
Can be hard to find, but you must. It has a wonderful collection of art one is displayed very well. It takes 1 to 2 hours and is just great.
If you are in the area of Augusta, the Morris Museum downtown is the place to go to see great art. Two things make this museum unique - 1. the small room spaces makes it cozy, like a comfortable old southern sitting room. - 2. They have one of the best collections of southern impressionism in the country. When we visited there was a collection of folk art that was expertly laid out in the galleries. Well worth a visit while walking around the riverfront.
