I like the current artist’s exhibit. It’s not a big museum so not a ton to see. They did have a small sculpture garden. They make you lock up your personal belongings but somehow my cousin got in with her phone. There was an encounter with a rude security guard as well.

We enjoyed the colorful exhibit by Jeffrey Gibson on this visit. The candor concerning social justice is a welcome breath of fresh air. Large, welcoming space and kind staff. Several programs for children in progress. Keep up the good work. Boise and Idaho needs you.
