    A Must See
    My daughter, 9, and I had a great experience at SCAD. The staff is top notch! Plus, this museum has one the coolest kid activities bags I have ever seen. If you go with kids, ask for the activity bag. It was a sketchbook, colored pencils, sensory items, a scavenger hunt and activity sheet. The exhibits are appealing to adults and children, and we really enjoyed our time at SCAD Beach.

    All Forms of Art
    We visited Savannah to attend Scad Day and the tour started at the Museum. It was not what I expected. I envisioned more of an art gallery with pictures/paintings on the wall. This was not the case. It was all different types of art modalities. It was fun, entertaining and interactive.

    Small Museum. Big Art. Great visit. Go here.
    Small museum, displaying rotating exhibitions of contemporary art. Very well curated. All of the art was both new, yet felt accessible. (so don't let the contemporary label discourage you if you are used to a greatest hits style museum). Building itself is a very interesting conversion of an old railroad station. Student staff were all helpful and enthusiastic. Really enjoyed our visit on a rainy day. Add this to any stop in Savannah. You don't need more than an hour.

    Talented artists.
    Fantastic modern art museum with some truly incredible pieces. Obviously showcasing some major talent. They regularly rotate exhibitions so quite a bit of the space was closed off for this on our visit, which was a shame. Still, the art that we did see was fantastic and there is a large sculpture and beach in the courtyard outside. Also, very friendly students happy to offer information.

Great tour of the campus! A really impressive college that has transformed downtown Savannah. Lots of majors. Stunning facilities and grounds.

Lovely exhibits, but the constant surveillance made it difficult to enjoy the experience. I’ve been to many art museums. Never have I ever had someone follow me around like that. The security was over the top.

Short gallery but enjoyed this museum with our large family of nine. Appreciated the family rate, which made it much more affordable.

Very disappointed in this facility. A limited number of artists' work (four) were represented and none appeared to be from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). We did not see any information that clearly indicated if these artists were a part of SCAD. It would have been a much more interesting and valuable experience if many more of the student artists' work from the SCAD were showcased. We enjoy modern art having visited many MOMA's, but the limited quantity of art in this facility would not place this high on our list of activities to chose from while visiting Savannah.

We came for gallery talks on fascinating contemporary artists who were in residence. The exhibits are beautifully done. I’m impressed by the huge turnout of actual students. Needless to say, their clothing had a lot to say (if I’m not being superficial).
I appreciate this wonderful resource for visitors.
