Don't be deceived by the big buildingby Yahoo | 2008-08-02 21:07:23 |

On entering the building we were informed about the many rooms they had filled with art. We paid a "$4 donation" each (which I do not mind paying if it is a good exhibit). So before beginning our self-guided tour we set the parking meter for 1 hour and a half, giving us plenty of time to browse. Low and behold, it took us a total of 5 minutes to walk through their incredibly finite "gallery A, gallery B, and gallery C". Complete dissapointment and waste of money. So DO NOT be deceived by the big building!!

Nice collection of studio art glass on display in a gallery with wonderful views of the H. B. Plant Hotel across the river.
