A wonderful place to visit, take art classes and partake in events.Most recently, a $320K award from The Henry Luce Foundation is the Montclair Art Museum’s largest-ever one-time foundation grant to boost Native American Art Collection At Montclair Museum. Patch.com

Unfortunately If I could give no stars I would. Two of my staff and I along with 17 clients who make up a special community of individuals entered the museum. Right away staff was very unwelcoming, and right away showed no compassion towards my clients. Museum staff huddled up together and were expressing how “sad” this is. Not sure exactly why that was said? They were trying to split our clients up into groups, as I then explained it wasn’t a good idea due to staff needing to be with ALL clients at ALL times. I understand the no running, no touching rules, but again this a community of special individuals who can’t comprehend that. There are ways to express these rules in a polite full manner, clearly which their staff was not capable of. Therefore my staff and I made the decision to just leave the museum. I do not recommend this exhibit at all.

The Montclair Art Museum is located on Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair the museum is temporarily closed due to COVID-19 however the museum is very nice and offers a lot of programs and a lot of cool tours it’s a great place to go just for a day with your family or it’s a great place to go if you’re on a field trip for school the museum itself is very popular in Monclair at one of the only museums in Montclair

Nice small museum with programs for kids and adults. The summer camp for kids is a legit way to get little people exposed to pro artists. Art in Montclair!

It would probably be best to go when they offer free admission (currently the first Thursday of each month) because there is not much to see.

Great Museum, the classes are very well taught with good materials and your kids will surely learn art in all its expressions.

This is where i come to have peace of mind. Staff is always helpful and friendly. They also have alot of pottery and art classes. I highly recommend the art class hosted by terri bertolo. She is a great teacher. She has definitely enhanced my ability to draw live models. Class is reasonably priced and she always snacks for the guests.

Free First Thursday Nights are the best. Its a nice, fun, relaxing atmosphere, and its especially great when the Empanada Guys come. Ive not been during regular hours, but the exhibits are interesting and during First Thursdays there are so many activities to get involved in. Its just unfortunate that I can never get there before 7, because of work, so I miss a lot of the good activities happening before then.

Not many art piece at exhibition. Its more of a event hall rental facility. 2 story only. Some hands-on educational programes might worth trying.

M.A.M. (Museum Art Museum) is a hidden gem. The Yard School of Art offers programs for children and adults. The exhibits are surprisingly fresh and change up a bit. The museum is small. Unlike some of the larger institutions in the NYC metro area, it can be walked through in 2 hours or less.

A nice museum. Wish there was more open when we went. A nice variety of different art in both painting and photos.

I went here with my kids today and it was a horrible experience, not because our kids were badly behaved but because the staff there were very harshly behaving to the kids and in general very rude. I personally heard one staff member rebuking the kids saying they were being ridiculous when the kids were only five. I also witnessed one of the security members pushing a kid causing him to fall just because he was standing too close to a painting. Horribly mannered staff.

Dissapointed that the majority of the exhibitions were closed for renovations until September 16, 2017. However, I may give more stars if renovations had been completed.
