The Cleveland Museum of Art is a place you MUST VISIT if you find yourself in Cleveland. If even if you are not a fan of art/art museums, you can't but help appreciate the architecture of this beautiful building. The grounds and surrounding area are also magnificent.
I really enjoyed seeing Rodin's "The Thinker" on the south side of the building. I also loved the Monet's, and the section with all of the armor.
The museum is home to art going back from hundreds of years before the birth of Christ to the 1990s....
They have a section for children to learn about art as well as an area that shows movies and hosts concerts. They appear to have events on Friday nights with music, cocktails and appetizers.
They have a nice cafe that offers everything from tandoori grill items to hamburgers, pizza and mac and cheese. They also have sit down restaurant that offers a full bar.
I ended up getting a cured meat flatbread pizza that came with side of argula with a lemon dressing. The pizza was ok.
Admission to the museum was free. There was a fee to see the special exhibit.
They also have a very nice gift shop and coat check available.
Plan on spending a few hours admiring the art work. It will be well worth your time!
