Harn Museum of Art

While the Harn Museum of Art is not large, it offers well displayed, varied exhibitions. Most are temporary, so it is necessary to visit the museum about once every two months to see everything.

The Harn's curators try to offer a good sampling of what is important in art today. For example, the current exhibitions include one of handmade art quilts, another of f64 photographers (the group that included Ansel Adams and Edward Weston), and Asian pottery. The museum owns one excellent Monet painting, "Champs d'Avoine," which is permanently exhibited, and usually has several fine paintings by Herman Herzog on display. There is a large rotunda area for which many original sculptures have been designed.

The museum is closed on Mondays and UF holidays. Admission is free (but donations are welcome).
