Winter Garden Cafe

The museum and gift shop were excellent on my visit. The collection of art was varied and well done. I loved how the American Art was displayed and information on the placards was interesting and gave a vision into what was going on with the artists. I finally learned why Rouault outlines his figures in black. He studied stained glass! The cafe needs some spicing up in the food. I recommend eating before or after visiting. The gift shop professional was helpful with product information and general information.

Remarkably good provincial art gallery. Nice cafe area. Knowledgeable docents. Decent shop. Great art programs for children and adults. We've been supporters for years because of the leadership they show for local arts.

Great gem in central Manchester. They have a wide collection of art as well as great informational staff. Definitely do not forget to tour the Zimmerman House!

Great little Museum. They have a really nice home collection, but the best thing is the monthly exhibitions. This month’s was The Guitar. They had them from the 15th century toModern times, very cool. Worth seeing.

Very clean and well maintained. Excellent selection of local art, with temporary world exhibits. Food court was cleaned, and sandwiches were good. Nicely stocked gift shop. Highly recommended if you like art.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Currier Museum of Art. It's a small museum, but I enjoy small museums because they are not overwhelming and you don't feel like you are missing something. The collection is mostly American and European and spans the ages through today. The contemporary gallery was my favorite.

Great local museum. We went to see the Art of the Guitar exhibit which will be there for a while longer. Check their website for times.

Was very impressed with the art collection but very disappointed with the volunteer staff. An older volunteer continued to follow my guests, and my children around making sure they did not touch anything (they didn't, we visit museums around the world and make sure to have high levels of respect for the art pieces.) We felt singled out. Not sure what we did to cause her particular dislike of us....Having been to several museums, my guests and I were very eager to leave after such an unpleasant experience. I was quite excited to see the works they do have (O'Keefe! Picasso's! And more) but probably will not return again.

World class, beautifully currated collections, and super accessible: the Currier, and the exhibits and performances it hosts, are a New Hampshire treasure.

Not a big museum but beautiful place .My family and I went there and saw how beautiful this place was.My favorite was the crystal carved fish.

It’s funny I don’t think a lot of people in NH realize that we have our own Art Museum! The Currier is awesome though, they work hard at getting new featured exhibits and keeping their collection fresh! They also offer arts classes and have a bunch of events throughout the year!

Great place but the staff does not take care of customer properly.

A small but varied collection of art. The paperweight collection spanning over 200 years is incredible.The gift shop has unique items and art-related scarves and prints.

Always a special time when going to Currier. The special guitar exhibit was fabulous. Leads you through the development and some of the extremes. Wonderful day. PS lunch at the cafe was terrific. Hot pastrami was delicious and tuna melt Devine. And very reasonable prices and very convenient.Can't wait for the next big thing.

Amazing museum with plenty of nice glass art including some Paul Stankards. Also has a cool Picasso and interesting exhibits that change regularly. I would recommend getting a half off pass from a local library and if you have a BoA credit card stop by on the first weekend of any month for a free pass. Friendly staff and beautiful building.

Great museum with lots of wonderful artwork, a large variety of artists and types of work. Loved the exhibition of bead work of the Ubehli women. Looking forward to the next exhibit. The Currier's cafe is great for lunch and a break in between viewing and enjoying. We'll worth visiting several times a year.

An absolutely amazing place! Free to New Hampshire residents on the second Saturday of the month with a valid instate ID. I was lucky enough to view a Picasso and an exhibit on the Shakers. It was a wonderful experience and I will be returning soon!

I have enjoyed bringing the kids on the second Saturday, when NH residents get in free. It's large enough to have an amazing variety but small enough to where it's very comfortable.

Enjoyed the visit... great collection of art.

Very nice regional museum with a broad collection.

I loved the time the staff takes to teach the kids a new craft in the classroom & its free on the second sat of the month!

Very calm peaceful and relaxing. Took our time looking at all of the beautiful art and learned so much also. Great environment. I will definitely be going back.

The museum has a nice collection and a moderately priced deli inside.

Came here for a tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Zimmerman house. Tour was great with helpful and informative guides. The museum has a nice collection and a moderately priced deli inside. Blue trees looked beautiful but a bit bare as it's winter.

If you have a local library card, get a museum pass from there before going here. Only paid $14 for 2 adults that allowed us to enter all the halls. Bought something small from the gift shop to support this local museum. Thrilled to see so many local New England artists being featured. Worth the visit.

Fantastic local museum tickets were 15$ at entry. Personally I enjoyed the contemporary art section and found myself lost attempting to decipher the work of these great artists!

I was here for the Shaker Furniture exhibition. The facility is very nice. The collection of works was excellent. I wish that more emphasis had been given to the craftsmanship of the pieces, instead of just their historical provenance. None of the cabinets had drawers pulled out to display their joinery, which was a disappointment. A better historical furniture exhibition can be found at the MFA in Boston.

Great place but the staff does not take care of the customer properly

Museum in the heart of Manchester. Free parking. Super friendly people. There is an onsite cafe making a bite to eat convenient with a good selection of items, reasonable prices, and a comfortable setting. The museum has a good mixture of exhibits. At this time they have a special exhibit of guitars. They continue your opportunity to explore to the outside. There is also as number of programs and community events offered. Much more than just a your traditional museum.

I've been here only once with my friend who loves art as much as I do and I have to tell you, this place is MAGNIFICENT! I love how everything was so different and beautiful. And I was definitely happy when I heard they had a cafeteria there. Most of the employees were very nice and helpful. I didn't really think I was going to enjoy it but I totally thought wrong! But you should try going there and see how it is. I hope you like it. Well if you love art you're gonna love this Museum.

Beautiful museum in Manchester. Frequent special exhibits. Delicious Cafe.

This is an absolutely amazing place to come visit and check out some of the art they have here. Saw my first Picasso piece and it was breathtaking to see in person. Happy to share this experience with the world.

Nice displays and they change it up periodically. Some of the staff are a little miltant: while reading a painting description I had my hand on the display counter (not the painting, which would course would be wrong!) and was told not to touch the counter. 😐

Very cool museum! Nice selection and range of pieces, plus the food is good too!

The Currier is a wonderful museum. I attended a private function there this evening. It is kept immaculate. There are many exhibits and displays to see. A 'must go to' place!

Friendly staff and great collections. Balanced background and insights about the pieces make the visit even more enjoyable.

Amazing collection, super event that was well attended. Great staff & easy location / parking.Can't wait to go back!

Art makes for a good conversation starter but the staff does not take care of the customer properly

Some cool art. Some old art. The modern stuff was cool and the guitar exhibit was real unique. I especially loved the air guitar on display since I've only seen one of those in pictures before.

For a small museum, it offered more than I expected, beautiful glass paperweight collection as well as period furniture, plenty of parking, cafe closes at 3

The Currier is always creative and I enjoy it each time I go. Refreshing, thought-provoking, fascinating, joyful, diverse, friendly. I would use all these to describe my experiences there. Wonderful exhibits and activities. Community engagement. Family friendly. Plus the winter garden cafe, the gift shop, and the Frank Lloyd Wright house. Marvelous.

Great place but the staff does not take care of the customer properly.
