Very nice museum with a large variety of art in their collection. When I visited we saw the Florida Contemporary Art exhibit which is an annual exhibition that features 10 contemporary Florida artist. Very impressed with the exhibition. They also have an interesting collection of African art, early American art and modern art. They have a nice gift shop and the museum is is located in a beautiful park which you can walk through to visit other museums and theaters.

A lot more art than I expected, covering many genres. The archaeological artifacts were well documented and intriguing. The paintings were spaced so that I could walk closer, then further, then lower, to see the brush strokes. There were beautiful statues. One of marble that conveyed a gossamer dress, flowing in the wind. There were some hands on exhibits. All in all, this is a great place to absorb art.

The Orlando Museum of Art is a spectacular place to have your wedding. It's one of the most elegant Orland Wedding Venues in Central Florida. I speak from first-hand experience... I have been a DJ here for many weddings and receptions. The rotunda is a spacious reception room, it offers something the a typical hotel ballroom cannot. It connects to other galleries, that offer a unique location to host a cocktail hour, ceremony, or pre-reception. Even if you prefer outside, there is an ever-changing sculpture garden that is completely different than any other wedding location in Orlando.

Can't beat $5 for college students! The museum itself is pretty large so there is plenty to look at. The exhibitions are also curated very well and are informative and intriguing. Would recommend if you enjoy art or want to find cool selfie spots. Tons of neat modern art to pose in front of if you're into that!

I went for a wedding. It was gorgeous. The atmosphere was wonderful. I plan to one day see the whole thing as a patron. Couldn’t recommend it enough.
