Really liked the Rembrandt show and some of the other artifacts, furniture and figurines. Nice/efficient volunteers and staff along with easy to understand signs.

Went to see last day of Rembrandt exhibit, which was great. Spent about an hour with my six & eight year olds in the rest of the museum. Not a lot of interactive stuff for kids to do, as in say, the Columbus Museum of Art, but the armour, Tiffany windows/lamps, Egyptian, and Greek exhibits are cool for a while... More

The CMA is a wonderful FREE museum. It's filled with incredible works of art from all over the world. Young kids love the armor court and the art classes, while others enjoy the exhibits displayed by period. There are also special exhibits. Parking can be tricky and handicap accessibility is difficult. Allow for several hours to explore the CMA -... More

The Cle. MOA is a must-visit and one of the city's true gems. Name another small metro area that can boast an art museum like Cleveland's? And it's free. It has Warhol, Monet, Manet, Rembrandt, Picasso, a couple of really nice Rodin's, Degas, Goya, Renior, Pissarro, Cezanne, van Gogh and Gauguin. ...and it's free. Outside of its really nice European... More

My husband and I went to the CMA to visit the Rembrandt exhibit, but spent the day going through the 2nd floor. We'll visit the rest on the next trip. The museum is in the middle of a major remodel and the future development looks incredible. I can't wait to see the finished museum!

The Cleveland Museum of Art never disappoints me. They always have a special exhibit that comes in each year that keeps me going back. Example exhibits they have had over the last couple years are The Vatican Treasure, Monet and most recently Rembrandt. It is located in a Culteral area near at least three other museums. Great way to spend... More

Wake up Clevelanders!! Our Cleveland Museum is a gem--a first class operation all the way. The permanent exhibits are world-class and there is no fee for admission to see them. Any kid (or kid at heart) would be amazed by the Armor Court, and the travelling exhibits (for which there is a fee if you are not a member) are... More

There is some word-class art at this museum. Rodin, Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Degas, and the list goes on. I can't believe admission is free! Parking was about $5 for 2.5 hrs, but you might be able to find free parking on the street. There is a beautiful garden at the back of the museum that reminds me of gardens in... More

First rate - I did not realize that Cleveland gets many works of art that are not sent to any other Art Museum. The Monet exhibit was wonderful
