    Always a good way to spend an hour
    My son and I visited this museum as part of a weekend trip to the Madison County area. The special exhibit we most wanted to see was Dorthea Lance’s America. This was a very touching collection of her famous depression error photography. It was quite beautiful if a little sad. Definitely a reminder to be grateful for the abundance that we currently live with. There was also a display of the Huntsville Photographic Society. This is the second time I’ve seen one of their annual exhibits, and it always delivers. There are some truly amazing photographs. We had seen much of their permanent collection before but enjoyed a special memorial exhibit of local artist Betty Grisham. We believe that it is very important to support the art and to take your children to museums. We believe in telling them to like what they like and find beauty around them.

    Lovely mix of art!!
    Nice small museum with interesting displays of decorative arts (glass, silver). A pretty big variety of art options: Asian, African American, youth. Be sure to stop at the Huntsville visitor center to get a coupon sheet with 20% off coupons for this and other attractions. Parking is free for 12 hours in the parking lot after being validated by the museum. Easy to walk to the downtown area and Twickenham from here.
