Wonderful in every respect. Check out the very cool bathrooms. Very friendly staff. Well be back.
If I could give more stars I would. This place is incredible.The staff is friendly and welcoming. The cafe had a good variety of well priced food that was delicious! The gift shop has fun things for kids to pick out as well as well as a great variety of books.The exhibits were a perfect introduction for my kids to art and museum etiquette. And this month they had artwork up from local schools which was really cool to see.We ended in the artery where my kids were able to create their own artwork. They have various stations set up to sketch and create.Such a good experience.
Pictures are posted now of their Art Cafe food cart at Village Green concert/food carts night.You must visit this amazing Arts Center itself. If the food cart is this cool, you really cant even begin to imagine what the Arts Center is like! Visit and enjoy the real Art Cafe there : )Employees there are all amazingly wonderful and helpful. Gift shop has really unique and appropriately priced items. Ive purchased so many birthday gifts here through the years.They also have superb classes, programs, concerts, plays, and other events.Thank you to the Kohler family, Ruth and Herb and all, for making this delightful place possible.
Great space and learning experience. Got a bag of free take home projects!
I adore this place! i’ve been coming here ever since i was younger. every exhibit and installation has been amazing, the winter events are wonderful and the staff is always so kind! i love the café food and i visit whenever i get the chance.
Hands down my FAVORITE place to visit, beautiful thought provoking art in a warm and welcoming environment!
Very interesting artworks. Staff was very friendly and informative on the artists collections.
Excellent experience! Beautiful contemporary artwork
Went arts festival. Vedors of gone down over the years. Moved food trucks to the music area. Very nice.
This place is wonderful. It is a wonderful addition to the community. It has free events as well as events that are paid. The interior is beautiful. The bathrooms are amazing. Every piece of this building is art. It is a must see when you are in Sheboygan!
I had the best time here! I cannot wait to go back. The cafe has great food so you dont even have to leave. Its a bit pricey, but its really good and convenient. Go when the monarchs are outside!
Incredibly friendly greeting staff. Bathroom installations are great. Really enjoyed the thought provoking installations and immersive experiences, especially The Autotopographers series. I could spend a day with each of Dr. Charles Smiths figures getting to know them. So engaging and brought diversity needed to overall space. Beautiful gardens with hidden treasures. Glad I had the time to check it out.
Free admission (but please leave a donation!). Its not a massive gallery, which is actually pretty nice because you can walk through the whole thing pretty quickly. Plus, even the bathrooms are works of art, so its pretty awesome.
Great Art exhibits, obviously. But also hosts community theatre. Saw a performance of Frozen Jr. by Dare to Dream Theatre (under 18). Great time, show and venue!
Always a treat. Excellent installations. Im looking forward to The Preserve opening so we can see even more of the collection.
Coolest bathroom Ive ever seen!!
Yesterday Lisa and Molly at the front desk greeted us like old friends. They gave us guidance on the Art Center and folk art sites beyond. In fact, all the staff were friendly and helpful. The exhibits were delightful and intriguing. Dont miss seeing all the bathrooms. Lunch on the patio was tasty and fun.
Dig the Artery! Provides anyone a free opportunity to express their artistic side. Staff is very sweet as well. Happy that theres a place like this that is free. Gift shop is way too expensive
Not as large as I thought it was from the outside, but a nice little art center. The bathrooms are the best at there, so make sure to check them out!
A wonderful exhibit. Eugene Von Bruenchenhein was a very talented painter, poet and sculpture. He was also a photographer. Enjoyed the tour with a group from Sheboygan Visual Artists.
We are always impressed with the exhibits at our local, free art museum! The cafe is pretty cute, too!
Loved it! What a wonderful fibers exhibit and of course the bathrooms, it is Kohler after all.
Incredible art center, exhibitions and first rate art fair! Truly amazing experience!
A wonderful art collection but the part my granddaughter loves is the creation area.
I love that art center, come to visit every time I am in Sheboygan. Beautiful exhibitions! if you like Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago - must go
JMKAC is a gem in this community. They do a wonderful job of bringing art and artists to the community enriching countless lives, especially children. My only complaint, and I cant quite explain it, is that it doesnt feel as accessible as some other venues. There is an air of snobbishness or exclusivity that I feel, but cannot prove.
It is not easy to take small children through the art gallery. It was hard even with our 4 young grandkids who were well behaved. They just wanted to get to close to the exhibits.
The art center always has an interesting collection of a variety of art styles. Its collections and displays generally feature self taught artists each using different mediums in their respective creations. Several different displays in different rooms change several times throughout the year. They also have a variety of programming.
Great place to go to get your culture fix with great art pieces, beautiful gardens and the coolest bathrooms in North America. It was a pleasure to poo in your exhibit, Sheboygan. 5 stars out of 5.
Interesting exhibits with available and helpful docents throughout the free museum. Fun artsy bathrooms too!
I wanted to volunteer but of course you need an appointment to do that! I meant I wanted to volunteer to at the library actually... After not being able to volunteer at the Library I started to walk home in the freezing with only a sweater, leggings, and boots I stopped at the art center to warm up, because I could barely feel my fingers. So I waited for my mom to walk over get me, because I did not know the way home and I looked in the gift shop while I was waiting for my mom she can to get me and brought me my coat, scarf, and gloves and then we walked home in the freezing cold . I hated that. The gift shop is way too exspensive! I had no money with me, but if I did have money with me, I would not buy anything because too pricey!!!! why is everything in the gift shop so exspensive tho?!?! The prices are outrageous!!!
Great free museum. New and interesting exhibits. An enjoyable place to spend the day. It has a cafe with both indoor and outside dining and a large gift shop.
A beautiful building filled with interesting folk art. The gift shop has something special for all ages. I was able to surprise my friend with a quick stop in the bathroom. She had no idea that it is an artwork itself. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Looking forward to going back in the Spring.
Beautiful! Clean! Friendly and informed staff! I love it!
Staff very friendly and helpful. Arts and craft room for children was great!!
Beautiful and interesting. Some renovations of some exhibits. The bathrooms were very artistic and fun!
A lot more than art gose in here, check out the website to see what music is playing or events for cooking or dance. A much needed attraction to Sheboygan.
What a gem! It makes us feel good every time we come here. The building design is warm and innovative, with parts of the original building. The art is clever, impressive, and accessible. We sometimes do a day trip from Chicago and make this a must visit.
Great staff and art.
Visually stunning exhibits! You have to see all the bathrooms too, theyre amazing.
Its a lovely and magical place!
Amazing. So much beautiful art and friendly workers. Havent gone to an art center in years and Im glad this was the first one to reignite my love for art. Would recommend to anyone to visit.
Interesting exhibits. Loved the restrooms! Maybe not a place to visit with kids unless eating at the cafe or taking art classes.
Interesting place to see art exhibits. Exhibits change regularly so there is always something new to see.
I just visited the free craft area and had a great time even with young children in tow.
Best small town art museum ever! Theres always free hands on art project to do for all ages and the people are super friendly! Dont miss this place summer or winter! In the summer be sure you tour the outdoor gardens and cool sculptures too!
Loved the autotopoqgraphies display. Amazing! Dr. Charles Smith Aurora sculpture exhibit is fascinating. Really enjoyed it.
Loved it. It was pretty nice, very interesting.
Very nice community center!
We go here for school all the time. People who work there are great, as well as the apmosphere is wonderful. The food in the Café can get a little pricey, but its good.
Beautiful, unique place to visit. Helpful staff and a free art creating event my daughter and I could enjoy together!! :)
Its a beautiful art museum that has local and worldly art displays. There are also art room activities for you to sign up and pay for. Amazing experience, my classroom of 5 year olds enjoyed themselves!
Great exhibits. The kids had a blast.
Great place! Always getting in new exhibits every 6 to 8 months and putting on shows, viewings and activities for all ages to do. Always something to see or do there.
Very nice building and art show. The bathrooms were amazing!!!!
Very interesting artworks. Dont miss the bathrooms!
An eye-opening experience every time we get to visit from Madison. I appreciate that there are always a number of incredible exhibits but not so many that I cant I spend time with each on a leisurely afternoon.
My first experience I enjoyed it.
The best art gallery in Sheboygan
So beautiful and such an inspiring space!
Beautiful facility and kind staff. Incredible artwork and artist that change out every few months. Even my 14 year old and 9 year old loved it.
Small little place and mostly everything was modern art that just doesnt make any sense. The kids paintings were really good though.
Great place to visit. Excellent activities.
Shown on cable for worlds best bathrooms each is unique and customized by kohler. You can tour any bathroom by asking an employee. The art is very unusual at the facility. Admission is free (although donations are suggested) and the gift shop is really nice and somewhat reasonable. They also host a quality art show.
This place was good because of the amazing art. fun atmosphere but sorta long paragraphs explaining art
I really loved the wide variety in art types and the cafe and gift shop was an added bonus.
This place is amazing for the bathrooms alone. The exhibits were also great. They put on a well run art show in the summer.
A beautiful facility. Make sure you go into the bathrooms.
With a focus on folk/outsider artists, this museum is loaded with fun and quirky art. Exhibits change, so you always get a bit of a surprise. Make a point of finding all the restrooms. . .each one is something special! Theres a nice little cafe and a terrific museum as well.
Free entry. Enjoyed the exhibits and the information from the docent. Picture is of the room where you can work on an art project.
I really only went into the store and looked around. There are pretty things and the outside of the building is beautiful.
Made some purchases. A lot of nice things go at the Art Fair.
A cultural hub of Sheboygan. The community is lucky to have such a facility which is completely free of cost to the public.
Excellent night ar the Levitt Amp outdoor concerts.
Cool to have this in Sheboygan... I adore the drop in center to do art! Gift shop prices are sky high though
The facilities and grounds here (especially the gardens) are really beautiful, at least in summer, and the cafes menu is an outstanding collection of fusion-style sandwiches and such. The permanent exhibitions that the museum maintains are heavily weighted toward a quirky stripe of folk art, which cuts down on variety. Your enjoyment of the museum may depend on how much you resonate with that particular type of collection. (Hence the four stars).
Beautiful museum with various types of artwork. Great classes, Café, and shop. Love the summertime music on Thursdays, and the free monthly PBS movies. Best of all this place is donation sponsored so literally anyone can visit. Dont forget to check out the famous bathrooms while your there!
Gorgeous place with amazing art and food
We had a lot of fun here. Is a must for children.
World class art museum in a small town
John Michael Kohler Arts Center they have a little park across the street also they have music and they have a vendor vehicles and a lot of people hang out. Good day to spend and listen to some music an artwork and all the other activities that go on through the year
Art fair had a lot of diverse artists, items and price points
Beautiful venue for an unusual collection of art.
My son Jakwan was in a musical there. It was amazing
Rotating exhibits make it fun to go to again and again
Beautiful inside. They change up exhibits quite often too so always something new to see
Absolutely loved my experience there. Cant wait to go back and see more exhibits
Always a great place to go. We really liked Moon Worl. Fun!
Excellent free art museum. Rotating professional exhibitions. Highly recommended. Fairly easy on/off from the Interstate. Worth the stop!
The exhibits need updating. When the art workshop is open, kids can make their own art with creative suggestions.
Was a nice time in a very fully artistic museum. Lots of interesting and exciting exhibits to look at!
Some exhibits were closed but bathrooms are cool!
The group The Cafeteras were OUTSTANDING!! GREAT FUN, GREAT TALENY, GREAT PASSION!! The John Michael Kohler arts center is something that we locals dont use enough.
I took a trip to the John Michael Kohler Arts Center abd I had a blast! All of the exhibits were very entertaining. Go there now to see an interactive exhibit of sorts. I will say no more so you can have a full experience yourself. Currently there is a artist who paints signs there. I was quite interesting to learn the history of hand painted signs. Hope you can make it there!
Amazing people, amazing art. JMKAC is a place that feels like home (when you let it). These folks work hard to support a community; youll enjoy being part of it.
A great stop, no admission but have to pay for parking. Gift shop is expensive but has some neat things.
I always enjoy myself at this center. The exhibits are always interesting.
