This museum is a jewel! There is a very impressive permanent collection that embraces different eras. Rotating collections are often excellent. Many cultures are also represented with the exception of African art--a lack that is surprising since Omaha is home to so many African immigrants.

The backpack program for children is exceptional and helps children really enjoy the museum. A great family outing! A definite "must do!"

I was very impressed with the Joslyn Art Museum. The day we were there there was some amazing art exhibits including one that was allowing the New Orleans Museum to house some of their collections there while they were rebuilding.

This is surely the place to go. The art is beautiful. I think any type of person any age would really love this. You really learn alot from looking at the art. And even if you don't like art all that much you should still go there just to see the blown glass.

Joslyn has some nice permanent exhibits and the traveling ones have been good - notable were the pop art and French exhibits of recent years. Jazz on the Green in the summer is good. If you're looking for free things to do, the musuem is free on Saturday mornings and Thursday evenings during Jazz on the Green.

One thing I wish they ...
