The gift shop never disappoints — its card selection is always reasonably priced and of the highest artistic quality. Museum Store Manager Vy Dang is one of the kindest people one can ever meet. She’s a bright light and a true creator in every way—she really takes the time to get to know customers’ needs, offers tailored suggestions to help find the best item, and even recommends arts programs in the Philadelphia area. She is just an authentically nice person. Just meeting an artist and genuinely lovely person like Vy makes a visit to the store a must. The sculpture display at the adjacent museum is also beautiful! Dora Savignac’s Ukrainian Plea stoneware brought tears to my eyes. A true gem in Philadelphia!

The main building is closed for renovation, I've visited exebition only. Around 4:00 PM they were already rushing to close the second floor. The young woman at the ticket office was staring at me without even attempting to smile, as if I had personally offended her. Overall, William Villalongo's work is worth a look, but if you are not a connoisseur - do not waste your time.

Parking isn't great but the museum is. Two levels and high ceilings feature student art, local artists, and classic art. Would love to come again.
