| - I'll admit, I've lived here for two years, have walked past this building countless times, I always say "that's such a cool building, don't you love the glass staircase?!" to whomever is nearby, and I've never been inside.
Leave it to my parents to visit and drag me to a museum.
So, in we went. The museum itself is not huge, making it manageable to tackle in an afternoon and tolerable to someone like me who can only take "so much" of museums. The exhibitions are free (yay!!) but some special events may have a charge, check the calendar. There are donation boxes on your way in/out of the building so please drop some cash in there so we can keep this place open!
It seems from the calendar that exhibitions may change a few times a year so each of your visits could be a whole new experience. Don't miss the sculpture garden on the roof where the museum offers movies in the summer (there's also a restaurant up there). Also, the museum gift shop has a ton of neat stuff so that's another stop you need to make!
A great, affordable, stop for an afternoon in Madison.
