Alright, so I didn't actually go into the museum, as I had a nine month old baby with me who was overdue for a bottle and nap. However, I spent several minutes changing my daughter in the bathroom and then poking around the cafe and gift shop while waiting for the taxi to take my screaming offspring back to the hotel. In this brief glimpse, I feel like I actually got a pretty good feel for the art exhibits available at the museum (since they were represented in various forms in the gift shop) and for the nature of the organization more generally. The volunteers were incredibly friendly, tolerant, and enthusiastic about the organization. There were several pieces of news on display in the entryway that conveyed the museum has extensive community outreach programs and a diverse donor base. The art was beautiful, with a focus on Bermuda's landscape and people without coming across as clichéd or touristy. I particularly liked the "People of Bermuda" exhibit, which presented portraits of individuals who have contributed to Bermuda - ranging from premiers to a retired man who takes it upon himself to greet commuters every morning. So, in brief, I highly recommend this museum and organization, and will actually go there the next time I am in Bermuda!
