The summer exhibition is a treat! And its free! If youre fortunate, there may be an artist or two around to discuss their displayed work. There are a few coffee shops close by for after or before your visit. Lovely venue on a hot summers day. Myself and my family thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Good accessibility for wheelchair.
Excellant location,good parking, nice exhibits,
Go visit before they close for good.
Such diverse works that do not go unappreciated by those who value art.Compared to other museums, Foosaner features some incredible work by incredible artists.
What a shame this museum may shut down. It was so nice. Interesting exhibit of art. Great way to learn about another culture, see another perspective, and be reminded how lucky we are to have our freedoms in America
Great mixed media exhibit of work by Linda Mitchell.
The place was wonderful and well laid out. I really enjoyed the Clyde Butcher exhibit. The staff was absolutely amazing. They were so helpful and friendly. It was a very calming and relaxing visit and I will definitely return with my family!
Incredible exhibition. It is a rare treat to find such thematical Cuban artists work under one roof. The curator did an awesome job. I have to go back and take more time enjoying it.
Free admission a nice touch of art culture in Melbourne.
Its small, but very good quality from the building itself and layout, to the types of art that is is brought here as well as the permanent collections.
Small museum downtown, great artwork was shown
Great local museum with a very welcoming atmosphere. I was lucky enough to visit while they were highlighting the Apollo 50th anniversary, It was a super collection of historic photos. There were many other interesting exhibits as well. Admission is free and it is a fun place to spend a few hours.
Derek Gores collage series was fabulous! While the exhibit included various artists inspired by Gore, my favorite was Spring in her Step, by Gore himself. The display, with a matching background wall, was visual beauty for the soul. Highly recommend this exhibit. Really fantastic collage artists and lovely displays.
Whenever Im in the area I make it a point to stop in to see the latest artists on display. Always the finest quality. It may be a smaller museum but the time spent is always enjoyable.
My children and I came here for a quick visit and ended up spending almost 2 hours here looking at the displays and the people that were here were very friendly and informative about the artist being featured at the time plus the interactive displays were amazing! We had so much fun coming here I would love to come again. Great to have this as a resource for the families in this area
Great pottery class at the museum facility.Also the exhibition is wonderful.A must see when in the Melbourne area.
Small place but unique art exhibits. Worth checking out online who is showing.
Very nice place free admission several times a week. Plenty of free parking next door
Staff isnt very informative and the “security guard” is very rude. Not sure why this is called an “Art museum” there’s really not much to see at all. The vendors at the festival going on across the park had many more interesting and beautiful pieces.
I love how they change it up bit from time to time
It showed the photographs of a cool local artist when I went, it is also nice and cool in there, a good break from the outside temperature
Very small museum. Free admission which is nice but walking through the whole museum took about 10 minutes. Wish it was bigger. I enjoyed what they had.
Didnt care for most of Cuban art exhibit bit still a cool place.
They had a good run. Lets see what happens to the building once FIT clears the art from the walls and Eau Gallie is left with a shell for a building. Like many museums across the country, raising money for art is always dicey and necessitates a near genius to figure out how such monies must be raised to keep the doors open. Too many museums. Not enough geniuses.
Visited the museum because of an exhibition of photographs by Clyde Butcher. Really great!
The Strawbridge Art member was very helpful, and the local artist display was very good. It was the last day for that exhibit. Nice museum and a great facility.
We took a watercolors class here. The class was wonderful. The room we took it in was way too big but overall it was good.
A very nice museum.
Small, but features some excellent exhibitions. I should go more often. On a previous visit some years back, I enjoyed a small showing of Dale Chihulys glasswork.
Love this small venue ~ will really miss it when its gone.
A cute but small art museum, about a half hour visit. Sometimes they have some high profile artists come through, which is nice. Free is also good!
This small museum packs a big punch....for FREE.
Nice small art museum. Our visit the display was works by Clyde Butcher photography of the everglades.
Not alot of art but what is there is really cool. Dont coupke hours with my 17 yr old daughter and she loved it
Unique Cuban artists display
Staff isnt very informative and the security guard is very rude but place was very clean.
Free admission, nice exhibits, well located in the downtown Eau Gallie art district. Highly recommended. Please support the Foosaner Art Museum.
Wonderful exhibit and very friendly and informative staff
Cool and chill and FREE!
What would an historic district be without this wonderful museum?! Become a member and help support this museum. Lets hope it doesnt move from the EGAD.
Art classes are great. The instructors are very talented and makes learning experience all the more great for kids.
Great little artsie place to visit!
Excellent exhibit Clyde Butcher!
Awesome, saw a great jazz band there. Awesome venue
Great exhibit of Clyde Butchers photos!
It was ok for photo art, but almost every photo is in black and white. No sketch art.
Amazing art museum that’s very involved in the community, a must see for local visitors!
We went here for an art exhibit event. Place was very clean and had quite a range of art considering its small size! Looking forward to Future events and exhibits!
The director captured every person attending with her perfect relatable lecture. Perfection...all of it. This museum has been transformed into a wonderful and warm. inspiring environment.
This used to be one gem of a museum.Its exhibits challenged its visitors with thought provoking images.One was often pleasantly surprised at the depth of imagination expressed by the artists.The museum was known for its ability to share original works of art with the community.Then one day it all changed.Although the exhibits are still often beautifully constructed and displayed, the management of the museum has greatly diminished their brilliance and their appeal.On two separate occasions my family and I have travelled over an hour only to find that the museum doors were closed shut, in spite of the fact that the museum website stated its was open.The museum is often closed on a whim.There is no rhyme or reason to its openings and closing.Viewing times been greatly reduced and restricted.The incompetence of its management is unparalleled and because of the administration’s ineptitude this once quiet enclave of culture has been effectively destroyed.Free admission is not a license for unprofessionalism.Do yourself a favor.If you intend to visit any of the upcoming exhibits, call first, and then call again while on the way.If not, you may find yourself pulling on a locked door because someone “did not feel in the mood” to open the museum or simply decided capriciously to close early and go home.Simply sad, so sad how this museum and all its charm have been ruined by those who were charged with its wellbeing.Dr. Joe
Fantastic local museum!
Friendly staff. Comfortable environment. Interesting exhibits
The price was free and the photographs were very nice. If you are into photography, its worth stopping by.
Very spacious, little art museum. Free admission. Had amazing exhibit of space related photos which probably ends this weekend.
Nice place to look at art
Had to go check out my sons art work that was choosen from school.
Always great art. Very live on Fridays and Saturdays
The wild life is free roaming, . Loved it
Very nice place to relax and take you in the atmosphere.
Wonderful experience with the Derek gores exhibition
Very nice muesen
Excellent exibits
Its free (can give donation). Small.
I go here every once in awhile. The Foosaner hosts many artists. My suggestion is just drop in when you have the time. FYI, you can take photos of the lobby area but you CANNOT take photos of any art within the gallery. Dont be that person;)College students in the area, great place to write your Humanities paper on!The Eau Gallie Arts district and the Eau Gallie Pier aregreat places to take a walk. Or stop by the libraryand gaze out over the river, I do. Speed limit onPineapple is 30MPH, strictly enforced. Most ofPineapple is a residential area which doesnt need anexcess of crazy coming off of US1. If you are not from here, go 35MPH, get the ticket and uhh... !Thanks for helping to pay our bills! Jk, dont break the law:)
Varied types of art work for different interests. Free admission to all since spring 2016!
Free and a really nice selection!
Pretty weird stuff and then one half of it was pictures of glass. If I wanted to look at cool glass pictures I could have done that at home on my computer.
Always beautiful work.
Always delightful.
Very few pieces, looked like the end of a garage sale. Security guard was hilarious and helpful, the rest of the staff was argumentative and frustrating. Two other women and my family requested our money back, and they refused. Wouldnt go back even if someone paid me to.
A positive treasure for our community and the state of Florida as well!Bob Brown
This place is terrible, boring art, boring atmosphere, and most of all terrible staff. The lady at the desk was asleep and this poor man had to wake her just to get some help. Not impressed whatsoever
Eclectic rotating collections.
For a small museum, the exhibitions are ambitious. I saw the Frida Khalo exhibition and also Infinite Mirror and Inciteful Clay - all top caliber shows.
Great exhibits
Excellent display of space photos...
Love the jazz concerts
