This art museum is wonderful. The outside landscape just makes you want to turn off the road and jump right into the building. For the average person who might not appreciate art like others, the museum is very easy to navigate through and offers many different styles from many different cultures. The inside "plaza" area is a great place to sit and have lunch after browsing though the collections. My favorite part of the museum is the "modern" art section. The big corn on the cob work still sticks in my head. A very great outing for yourself or family.

The Nelson Atkins is a great place to go for an afternoon of cultural and intellectual stimulation. While it's not the top art museum in the country, it houses an impressive array of both paintings and material culture. You can easily spend a morning and afternoon wandering around the galleries. Admission is by donation, so there's no huge entrance fee. The lawn art is pretty funny. They move the giant birdies throughout the year, so keep an eye on them!

The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art is a great art museum in the downtown area of Kansas City. I don't really no anything about art, but I do know that they have a great collection of all sorts of different art works. I can go and spend hours by myself looking around at all of the art. I makes me feel like I have a little culture.

If your crazy about the girl, who happens to be at least somewhat intelligent, this is a superb place for a date. You'll get in beautiful works of art, and have enough time to laugh at a few, and get into some nice deep discussions. My favorite place to go for inspiration. Thank GOD Kansas City has some culture!

Kansas City is pretty big on Art. The Nelson is neat because they have different kinds of art, from old to modern. Under almost each piece of art, you can find a story about the work. If you never been, it's a definite must see in K.C. They have a restaurant inside too, in case you get hungry from walking around. On Fridays, admittance is free.

Nelson atkins museum of art is obviously located in the art district of kansas city. Even if you don't go into the museum, the area is just beautiful. It has many older homes that are so nice, and the area around the museum itself is kept up well, and there are a few pieces of "lawn" art as well.
Nelson has great yearly exhibits that are usually more for adults than children. It just isn't soemthing kids would generally be excited about.

This museum is full of Asian, European, and American Art. They also house some unique sculptures both inside and outside the museum. The ones outside you can not miss it is a site to see for your own eyes. The museum has many exhibits located in different rooms which makes it easier to look at if you don't want to look in a huge room full of things you can always come back and view the rooms you missed out on that day. This museum isn't as large as some, but it carries a lot of beautiful and interesting pieces that keep people coming back.

This is the best museum in the midwest, and one of the top ten in the country. The Nelson Atkins museum of fine art always has something you didn't see before, and such beautiful works. The exhibits are great, and the "lawn art" is ironic and flattering to the eye. Cheap and fun this is a great place for child and adults.

The Nelson Atkins Museum of Art is nothing compared to any big museum in New York or Chicago. There really aren't any big name paintings because KC isn't a big market for art. I would definitely not bring kids because looking at paintings will get really old with them. I do not remember how much it is, so I cant comment on the price range.

This is a great museum in Kansas City, by the plaza. The building itself is just as cool as the stuff inside. It's really old and it seems like an old church or something from Europe. They have famous stuff in there, a Van Gogh and quite a few Monets. They have various sections, like an egypt section with really old stuff, and asian section, a christianity section, and an african section. There is a resturaunt in there too but it's really expensive and I've never eaten there. The admission is free!
