I've been to the art museum on a few occasions now since living in Phoenix for 2years. The standard exhibits that they've had this entire time are definitely nice even seeing them multiple times I've enjoyed them. I've seen 'special' exhibits a few times now. A few photography exhibits, the video game exhibit, even the fashion exhibit. Sometimes I pay... sometimes I remember its free on certain days. That has never swayed my enjoyment of the museum. I've never been harassed for taking the few photos that I have.. although admittedly I'm not a big photographer for art I can revisit and enjoy in person. Well worth a visit.
