Amazing Museum

The Harvard Art Museums, among the world’s leading art institutions, comprise three museums (the Fogg, Busch-Reisinger, and Arthur M. Sackler Museums) all under one roof. Masterpieces among our more than a quarter million works include works by Vincent van Gogh, Claude Monet, Georgia O’Keefe, and Jackson Pollock; contemporary works by internationally recognized artists such as Kara Walker, Ai Weiwei, and Kerry James Marshall; and an array of remarkable objects from ancient cultures in the Mediterranean, Near East, and Far East. Our special exhibitions give us the chance to showcase an even wider range of works spanning diverse media, genres, and eras.

Excellent collection
This is a really impressive museum with a great collection of work from many of the well known masters. It's particularly impressive given that it is on a college campus but, then again, it is Harvard after all. Well worth visiting.

Good collection, snobby staff
The museums are quite nice, and I needed a full three hours to make my way through and read many of the object labels. I don't think the young woman behind the counter could have been much pricklier if she'd tried. She provided next to no info, seemed disgusted that I dared to ask a few questions, and later told me after I'd read about public tours (not presented to me as an option) that the first tour had filled up. The other young woman I saw checking people in also seemed far too proud to be a Harvard student or Cambridge/Boston resident, and she was too grumpy to be in her role. One nice space was the café, as the employees there were more than cordial.
