Small but very elegant museum! The outdoor concert hosted by the Long Beach Blues Society was wonderful. It was hot outside on the August evening but food trucks in the parking lot and big cold drinks - I got lemonade - and inside the museum was very cool. Lots of Frida Kahlo stuff in the gift shop. The women artist's work inside is definitely worth checking out, actually all the art was unique and interesting and often quite beautiful!!! Cool gift shop too!

i was a bit underwhelmed as one area of the museum was closed off for a future addition. we were luckily able to visit for free because it was a sunday afternoon as a walk up. the other rooms did have some interesting exhibits but it really did feel small but looked huge from the outside. i felt like the gift shop was a little too big in size as well. the highlight has to be the sculpture garden which also had some empty spaces for some more pieces. i would like to visit again in the future but i'll wait a few years before that next time.

You should come here with the right expectations in mind: it’s a small museum. However the content it has is very interesting and insightful! And I enjoyed going through it once by myself and a second time with a wonderful guide who discussed some of the pieces more in depth and talked about some historical and cultural contexts I was unaware of!
