Oglethorpe University Museum of Art

Incredible art collection tucked away on the third floor of the library. Names are there that even a casual art critic will recognize. Paul Cezanne, Winslow Homer, Mary Cassat, Eugene Delacroix, Pissaro, Salvador Dali, Picasso, and many more! Permanent collection and temporary exhibits will tempt you to come back every few months. Bookstore has a pleasant student to help. Seats are available for elderly visitors. Park in the visitor parking at the top of the quadrangle. Come on a Saturday for free admission.

Enjoyed my visit to OUMA today. Went for Stories Without an End exhibit and though it was a small exhibit, that and the Oglethorpe campus were very nice. The sculptures were beautiful with great info worth further research. A great Sunday afternoon activity- I recommend it.

Fantastic exhibit and free! Art from the inside refers to art created in prison. What a great concept, with positive outcomes. We were satisfied beyond our expectations and will return with friends.

Had to come here for a school assignment. A very small place but so informative. A lot of the paintings make you reflect and think and there is also a lot of memoirs here from so many people. I loved the art and thou I am not artistic myself, the atmosphere still put me in an awe mood and brought many thoughts of times before me.

Enjoyed a visit here while at Oglethorpe for Alumni weekend. Enjoyed the talk by the artist in residence. Worth a quick visit if in the area.

Visited museum on a Tuesday afternoon. No wait, no cost of admission, and my sons' wheelchairs fit just fine. A significant part of the museum was closed as they set up a new exhibio, apparently, as we didn't see any of the big names cited in other reviews. We budgeted two hours and were done in about 30 minutes. I guess the lesson for me is to always call ahead.

What a jam of a place. The small gallery puts on some great exhibits. We enjoyed the Chicano art that we saw and learned a lot. And it was free.

It's a small space but some significant works. They do a great job with the artist bios and their place in history.

We had an enjoyable time at the museum. We were attending an Alliance Theatre performance at Oglethorpe and wanted to see the campus. We were surprised by the $5 admission but we're happy to support the arts. I think they should consider a donation based admission or a sliding scale. It's a lovely small museum, and we saw 3 exhibits, however many college museums have fee admission. They have a Chagall lithograph that is a remarkable piece, but no major paintings.

A very tiny one floor exhibit that we saw right after they shampooed the rugs due to some sort of leak. The fumes were absolutely choking. There was an incredible difference in the temperature between the two areas where the exhibits were. All in all it was free so I'm not one to complain a great deal. Check it out IF you are in the area.

Such a special place - I had the pleasure of seeing The Sacred Round: Mandalas by the Patients of Carl Jung exhibit. Vicente de Moura of the Jung Institute in Zurich presented a most wonderful lecture! Please take some time to walk around the castle campus. There is plenty of free parking. Museum admission is $5. I savored my time here and am happy that I only got through some of the mandalas in the exhibit. I look forward to returning and going through the art-case histories. The gift shop is full of precious finds.

I am standing at the Musuem as I type because their machine did not work for the $5 admission into the art exhibit and I was told I would have to come back with the cash. I asked if a supervisor could intervene as I am already here, and was told, "thank you for coming, but we don not have free admission. You are welcome to come back." Needless to say, I will not return.
