Интересное место, есть интересные произведения, очень большая секция китайских экспонатов: миниатюрные вещицы вырезанные из камня с такими мельчайшими деталями, что просто поразительно, какие были мастера много веков назад. Есть маленький сад. Парковка небольшая, въезд 4$.

My husband and I enjoy visiting art museums and Harn was a great addition to our list. Parking is free (parking deck a short walk away) and there's paid parking if you find any free spots in the nearby parking lot. Admission is free, but donations are accepted.

Once we walked into the museum, a friendly front desk person greeted us and told us about the scannable map of the location. Then, we went off and explored what exhibits were on display. My favorite part was the Asian art section.

The facilities are excellently kept and clean. The women's bathrooms were spotless. There are also staff walking around at all times to ensure the art is being respected. It had a lot of empty space, which was different than other galleries and museums we've been to. Not sure if that was a good or bad thing, but it was interesting to see how the space was utilized.

It was starting to rain when we arrived and there were only a few visitors (maybe 10) that we encountered (it was Saturday around 230pm). When we left (around 330pm), more guests were arriving, so we were glad to see the displays when it was mostly empty.

Highly recommend for adults, but kids might get bored since there isn't much interactivity here as say, the Florida Museum of Natural History, just next door.

Y'all! This museum is free! There's absolutely no excuse for you to not come here. I wasn't expecting their Florida collection - it was truly glorious. Two thumbs up, and I definitely want to go back.

Pretty good museum with many interesting exhibits, paintings and events.

There's a hidden section in the basement of this building where some PG13+ art is displayed.

The best sections among the exhibits are the Asian and African sections. The Asian section has beautiful sculptures, jewelry and pottery from India, Japan and China. The African section has super cool masks, head gear and weaponry from ancient and contemporary African tribes.

Paintings are also worth having a look at, especially the impressionist and the Florida paintings sections.

Some events are cool and have a lot of fun stuff to enjoy like dances, stories, and stalls showing you how to make some art or painting from that culture. Other events are very meh.

The website will help you get an idea of which events are really worth checking out.

Best of all, it's free to the public.

Free parking near the museum.
At the entrance to the museum sits friendly staff who give recommendations. Many different exhibits: masks, paintings, photos…
We were on Saturday. There were enough visitors. Due to the presence of free space inside the museum, visitors do not crowd each other.
It is difficult to single out any zone. It was interesting in every corner.
We spent about 2 hours inside and were extremely pleased with our visit to this museum.

Went to night at the museum "Africa Everywhere". That place is huge. It was so many people and best of all its free people! Yes. We are going back so we can really take our time. Right next to the Butterfly Rsin forest and the Natural Museum of History. It has a gift shop. Great for the family ?
