The third floor at the Minneapolis Institute of Art is what I picked to explore on a rainy afternoon, and let me tell you, I barely scratched the surface of what this place has to offer. This is just… Full review by Matt N

They truly have magnificent collection of art. Try to allot more than 2 hours. I like better the second level display. Lots of parking options Full review by Guide55635543165

This gorgeous art museum was the perfect activity to get away from my conference: a beautiful museum of beautiful art. I loved the Tibetan Buddhist Shrine Room, the exhibit on storytelling in Chinese… Full review by dustythoughts

A few ideas: instead of focusing on a particular exhibit, pick a theme (say horses, cats, masks, boats, etc,) and look for different ways artists depict the theme. Or go on an ABC scavenger hunt and try to find something for each letter of the alphabet. You do not need to find them in order. Write down all the letters and fill in something as kids find it. You will be amazed at what they see!

Q:
I just bought a metal goat attached to a wooden base. On the bottom of it a label says that it was an authentic replica of an original from your institute. Can you tell me anything about the original piece? I bought it at an antique mall in Kent, Ohio. I payed $12.50 for it. I love goat related items as I raised goats for many years.
A:
Maybe post this question via the "Contact Us" page on the MIA website.

Q:
Is there an app that one can use while at Mia that describes the art?
A:
Looks like they have one but it's more you blog about your experience there with the app.

It can be a LONG trip by bus coming from Woodbury. I would hit downtown via an express bus M-F (much faster). Once you get to downtown Minneapolis, get something to eat (waste time until museum opens) Keys, Haute Dish, Hell's Kitchen to name a few places. From downtown you can catch the 11 from 7th & Hennepin to 3rd & 24th. From there it is a short walk to the museum. Definitely get google maps. You can catch an express bus from downtown to Woodbury in the afternoon, but they don't start running again until 3:30pm. There is a lot to do to waste time in Minneapolis. If you are done with the muesum before 3:30, you can head back downtown and cross the river to Main Street and eat and maybe rent a nice ride and bike around. There are ton of bike paths, bike boulevards, etc. You can bike or walk across Stonearch Bridge and check out the Mill City Museum (minneapolis was built on its milling. This muesum tells you of our states great history and there was an explosion in the building and the remaining part of thr building houses the museum). If you didn't get your fill of art, head over to the Walker and Sculpture Garden (short bus ride) you can walk through Loring Park and cross the bridge over busy road to the Sculpture Garden. Have fun! I hope this helps. Google maps provides bus routes. It will help you navigate the city.
