Monet is on display now. I love the murals around the outside the gardens were beautiful the flowers are in bloom and the grass was the softest I’ve ever felt between my toes. They have a sweet water garden where you can put your feet in to cool off. There’s chairs to sit out for lunch. It’s nice inside there’s lots of things to see for free. That’s the best part it’s free!

A lot of great art lives here. Local and MS art is showcased right in your backyard. Its worth a visit. Currently there is a Van Gogh exhibit that you have to pay extra for. I enjoyed the local art more than the Van Gogh exhibit.

Wonderful that Jackson could get the traveling Van Gogh, Monet and Degas exihibit. Small museum with nice gardens. Also will host events.

Had a great time seeing permanent collection and the Impressionist Exhibit. Great staff. Nice layout.

I absolutely love the new building and the garden. This is definitely a bright spot in an otherwise dismal city.

A unique museum and new paintings worth visiting, there are free places at the museum and other places with drawings.

Small museum, but always nice to see Impressionism exhibits! Great gift shop.

We are visiting from Gulfport, Mississippi for the day. We have thoroughly enjoyed the museum & art. This is the first time my son has seen a Vincent Van Gogh and it was exciting to see his enthusiasm! We had the sweetest guide who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable! Cant say enough great things about the museum! I look forward to coming back and bringing my husband. Oh, and the security officer was extremely kind too! We got to park directly out front. You will want to spend a little time outside admiring the landscape and yard art that wont disappoint.

One of the best museum that we have ever visit.Pros: The place is pretty nice both from the outside and the inside. They are free so it is so amazing and everyone can come and visit that is so awesome. Let me pay the excise be a “special and there’s many activities that you can do while you are there.Cons: There’s not a lot of parking space and it is downtown so that may be quite something going on. Because it is free so there’s not many special pictures of arms that you can see.

A very nice museum with beautiful gardens. The travelling exhibit ( French Impressionism) was very nicely done. The permanent exhibits displayed the history and culture of Mississippi very nicely. The gardens are a great place to relax, and a small splash pad for children to enjoy themselves. Definitely will return.

The Impressionist exhibition is pretty astounding! Degas, Van Gough, Cassatt. Just wonderful! And the permanent collection is always wonderful to visit!

An unusual art museum. There was one very small room for the permanent collection but they had two or 3 special exhibits in larger spaces there were quite nice. We loved looking at the modern quilts.

WAAAYYY too much politicized art! WAAAAYYY too much of the sentiment that Black people are victims and oppressed. God forbid that they are taking young school children in here and giving them the idea that the color of your skin determines your destiny. Lets try to encourage and inspire, rather than languishing in maudlin complaints of how things used to be. Gift shop was awesome though, and got close to $100 dollars out of me! : ) Did I mention that the building and grounds are beautiful?!

We went for the Van Gogh, Monet, Degas & Their Times exhibit, but were equally impressed with their ongoing exhibition New Symphony of Time – it was really great to see Mississippi native artists showcased.

Beautiful museum. Great place to get out and unwind. The art was wonderful and thought provoking. Reservation process was easy and social distancing was not an issue. I definitely recommend going.

The Art on Film screening of Moving Vincent at the Mississippi Museum of Art was a rousing success. The best turnout for any film of our film series programs. Thanks. See you on October 9 for our next film.

MMA is a beautiful small museum that has great exhibits. One of the best things in Jackson

Nice special exhibitVan Gogh, Monet, Degas, and Their Times: Video Guide

I am giving it 5 stars for the fact that the staff were very nice. Art is not my thing but I am sure other people would enjoy this.

Great place. Clean. Peaceful. Theres a garden area outside. You wait outside and someone will come and get you. Thats because of Covid-19.

Absolutely loved this museum! The exhibit we went to see was awesome! The garden and grounds were lovely. The staff was friendly and informative!

A very well done museum and a nice setting in general with gardens and fountains. The staff there was very helpful and friendly.

Yesterday I got to experience an immaculate art exhibit created by Nick Cave and curated by amazing young individuals here in Mississippi. I cannot wait to see what they and the museum has to offer next! This was truly a blessed experience .

Van Gogh, Degas, Monet and Their Times is an excellent exhibit, and with the Covid-19 restrictions Appointment and masks required, social distancing), viewing the show is an uncrowded, unhurried pleasure.

This place packs a surprisingly large punch. The space itself is beautiful, and the exhibition was quite stirring. The lady who issued my ticket was more than friendly, she says genuinely hospitable.

I have been attempting to plan my wedding at the museum since early this year. When we toured, we thought the event coordinator was great and would be supportive, but planning has been nothing but one big issue after the next. We were quoted incorrect pricing during our initial consultation. That was fixed, but any time I have attempted to e-mail, it has taken DAY/WEEKS to get a response. We have gotten ZERO update since the COVID pandemic started, and our CATERER who does not even work for the museum has had to keep us updated! As a nurse working through the COVID crisis, I have zero time/energy to consistently reach out/get updates! My dream was to have my weeding at the museum, and now all I want to do is take my deposit back and run. I am SO discouraged!

Great place. Employees super friendly. The exhibition was great

I will be returning for more amusement as well as knowledge. My children enjoyed the variety of art. The one on Medgar Evers was my favorite of all. This is an awesome museum to take your family on a beautiful day.

Great little museum in the heart of Jackson. They have awesome events here - e.g. family movie screenings.There are a bunch of kids sections and the special exhibits were always great and educational.In one exhibit the artist played with shapes to form art from shadows. The picture is one example from that temporary collection

Nice little museum. They have a Warhol of the triple evlis.

Here for the impressionist exhibit, which is an awesome, must see event.

I really enjoyed the exhibit and I loved that they had some very kid friendly activities. We journaled, admired art, got to see cotton from another perspective, learned about lines, and had fun in the water fountain mosaic. It really was a great way to spend the day enriching ourselves and it didnt cost an arm and leg. Plus the museum had some inexpensive items at the gift shop.

Loved it.... a gem for Jackson and Mississippi

Well-maintained with a great layout and friendly staff. A wonderful blend of art and history, arts of all kinds from different styles and times of the world.

The gift shop has a wonderful variety of items at many price points. Items for kids and adults, serious and humorous. Dont tell - I got a matted reproduction of one of the paintings to give for Christmas.

My nephew and niece worried me, so we finally stopped. They had a great time and got to learn a little about cotton, the Mississippi Delta, and they got to see some pretty cool art. Ill be taking them periodically as the new collections come to the museum.

Very friendly helpful staff. What we saw was beautiful but we were one day early for the reopening of most of the exhibits. Hope to revisit one day in the near future.

Great location well maintained

The Art Museum is a great place to explore and enjoy exhibits and art work . But I really enjoy the level of service they offer for groups or individuals who choose to rent spaces for special events.It is absolutely awesome and they offer a variety of menus for every occasion.The fees and prices are easy to view on their website. Menu options and request are made after contacting the Museum by phone or email probably.

Very beautiful place! The grounds are extremely well maintained where theres a lovely garden with a walking path throughout, the exterior is very nicely architected, and the whole thing just gives an air of beauty and tranquility.And I havent even toured the museum yet! Ive only gone there for events on the lawn and Art After Hours on every third Thursday of every month.

Nicholas Cave exhibit was thoughtful and unexpected. Making beauty with daily bits of life.

Black Out is a great exhibit!

The free section was nice. Enjoyed seeing the local art

The MMA is one of my favorite places to spend time in Jackson. Ive been coming to the museum long before I moved here. They offer world-class travelling exhibits and have a permanent collection of fantastic art by Mississippi artists/relating to Mississippi. The art garden is excellent. Classes and events for children, adults, students, and the whole family are top notch. The facility and grounds are immaculate. Art is presented well. Special events are plentiful and inviting. I have a membership to the museum, which is not expensive and offers all sorts of extra perks, discounts and exclusive viewings of working studios and private collections around town. The museum is a popular place for weddings, chamber music, and high-end receptions. It is worth going out of your way to see the collection and attend an event if you are in Central Mississippi.

The Nick Cave art exhibit and Silent Disco event was marvelous. I hope you have many more event like this in the future!!!

Fun place, nice art.

My favorite place to relax and refresh. Lots of great events. Memberships are well worth it.

The museum has a GREAT silhouette exhibit. I was grateful for their free admission, free wifi and areas to lounge. The gardens are beautiful. I would definitely recommend visiting the museum.

We really enjoyed this museum that leans heavily on local, regional artists. Excellent museum overall.

I very much enjoyed my visit. The staff was very kind and helpful. While they are a smaller museum they have several interactive sections for guests which I can see would be very helpful for those with children. They had great parking. They also had beautiful gardens and the museum had a few tables set aside, in the cafe, for those who wished to draw.

It was spacious and well organized. I loved the quilt exhibit based on slavery times--very bold. Also featured was a MS born native American artist that was very interesting. Depending on your level of interest you can probably make it through thi exhibit in about an hour.

A fun and free place to go!

Wonderful museum. Very fun and educational.Will definitely be going back for regular visits.

They try hard to have good exhibits. They need more money from donations for promotions.. Nice people

First time here, Im from Houston. Go to the museum to join the Muslim Festival in Mississippi. Before I dance, I tour the museum. Do not know how much the ticket price for entry, I found Pablo Picasso. Not that crowded as Museum Fine Arts in Houston thoug.

Not much of a art person but enjoyed getting out of a cold Misty day and learning and looking.

Very friendly staff. There was an area for the kids as well, which made the visit more easy for the family. It is free to see and definitely worth a stop!

Mississippi Museum of Art is a wonderful place to visit both as an individual and as a family. It is a beautiful part of Jackson MS!

Beautiful Decor for this event

This is one of the best museums of art I have been to. Their after hours are a must for young and old.

Very nice! Small and relaxing. Perfect for a date or just to explore what our city has to offer.

Wonderful display of high school artistic winners. Nice, interesting ; just all around fun place to take your family and friends.

Came during one of their Art and Coffee events, and it was very excellent. The staff makes you feel welcome, the speaker was very interactive and informative while also providing great insight to the history and culture of the pieces presented.

There were some very interesting artwork.

Beautiful museum and very accessible. Love how much it supports the community.

Amazing experience

Wonderful addition to the downtown area.

Art handler for the company. Beautiful art to see and learn about

Loved it! The museum is small but well curated and free.

Awesome and besutiful paintings and art

Gorgeous gardens outside, but not much to look at inside.

Wonderful display of high school artistic winners. Incredible talented young people, I was just blown away!

Awesome art on view and lots of free public programs

FABULOUS and an amazing day to visit. April 5, 2019

Nice, interesting ; just all around fun place to take your family and friends.

Great place for all ages. Rotating exhibits require a ticket, but the front areas of the museum are free of charge. Once a month, Music in the City is free on a Tuesday night which features great classical or folk music. It is co-sponsored by St. Andrews Cathedral. There are art camps for kids and after hour events once a month on Thursdays ... still free.

We travel all over the country and try to see as many art museums as possible. A few have stood out for the objects and the curating and the MMA has been added to our list of favorites. From the outside art garden (which we did not spend much time in because it was raining) to the wonderfully light filled atrium at the entrance to the displays this was a visit we thoroughly enjoyed. We were there for the exhibit called picturing Mississippi which only runs until July 8, 2018 so if you can get to it, do. They have events all the time and a very good gift shop with lots of art and nice gifts.

Fun visit to the Museum of Art! It has a couple of floors of art work, paintings, and sculptures to walk through. Interesting works with some very original sculptures. It has a beautiful garden outside coupled with a small fountain garden. Its open to the public located in the heart of Jackson Downtown, its worth a visit

This museum looks like a cool place, but unfortunately when I went to visit all but one gallery was closed for construction to install new exhibits. It seems like poor planning to be installing multiple exhibits at once in such a small museum.

Neat museum and a good experience. Wasnt expecting much but it was definitely worth the stop. Interesting local pieces on display.

A place to Enjoy art

More exhibits from POC/WOC please!

It was a new experience for me. Never been to Creole Folk Music before, Loved it!! Everyone was friendly and helpful. And yes the was a Cash Bar.

Stimulating exhibit! Knowledgeable staff. Expert curator!

My daughter had art show here clean nice place

Great area, easy parking. Gardens could be expanded, they are the best. Front desk older gentlemam is very helpful.

Great place to hold an outdoor event. Ive been to the movie and food truck events here in the last 2 years, its been wonderful. Plenty of seatings and the food trucks have been great!

This is one of my fav things to do in Mississippi. I loved all the lovely dinners I have been to here. Def a wonderful place to host parties and events

Enjoyed our visit here

No exhibits were open and there is no longer a cafe. Very disappointing

Awesome art museum. Im not from Jackson, but come over for a weekend getaway every now & then. Love to stop here & check it out. The building & grounds are super cool too!

Wonderful experience. Very fun and educational. Great personnel. We will definitely attend the next event

This is the premier museum in Mississippi. Im a regular, but visitors are often amazed at the quality of the exhibits, staff, not to mention the food. Currently there is an exhibit called When Modern Became Contemporary that you should not miss.The facility is great for events such as Company parties, weddings and other special events. Its very cool to hold an event and have the ability walk-through a top-notch museum at your own pace.There are numerous events each week, but my favorite is probably Third Thursday which is held in the adjacent Art Garden and features local bands, special food and drinks, and is a really good time. Dont miss it!

I am an intern there, so maybe I am a little biased, but the staff is awesome and they really do try to make interesting programs for community outreach

It has a nice interior. Its probably best when youre going for an event because the actual art selection is relatively small. They hold fun events though, and looking into it is a good idea

Art nice, parking hard to find, wife draged me along.

Very friendly staff willing to discuss the exhibit and even gave of information about the viewing benches designer. The grounds were excellent as well.

If you want an art museum in Jackson, this is it. They have some nice stuff.

Great museum, beautiful exhibits. Great place thats kid-friendly and had lots of interactive exhibits for kids. Special events scheduled through the month. And its FREE!!

Enjoyed the group activities. Lunch, tour and painting.
