This is likely the best kept secret in Minnesota. In this museum you will fine masterpieces from all your favorite artists. I was thrilled to see so many from the Hudson River Art Guild. When I first walked in and saw all the rooms of art, some I recognized from books, it took my breath away. It is easy to stroll through this museum to take in so many wonderful works of art from Monet to local artists. They have a nice gift shop as well. Their exhibits change frequently and thus returning here is always a joy. Everyone should visit this gem.See more..

4.5Owatonna Arts Center(9 reviews) - SECRET GARDEN TOUR Monday: Art Museums The Art Center again hosted a "secret garden tour" again this year. You buy tickets and are given addresses of people that have opened up their yards to show all of the work they have put into the gardens. The proceeds go to benefit the Art Center.
