  • We stopped here and had a light lunch in the cafe before touring the house and one small exhibit. Nice enough.

  • Had a great experience at the Taft Museum. We went to see the Fashion and Sensibility exhibit, as we are fans of Jane Austen movies! The exhibit was well done and it was worth the trip! The museum also has several nice pieces. It was a great visit! Plan on coming back and seeing more of the grounds.
  • Great museum to visit! Somewhat expensive for what they have to offer but still a must see. I thought everything was really really incredible and interesting especially because I am into fashion and costuming. The parking garage was filled when we arrived so we had to find parking so make sure to factor that in! Loved it! Would definitely go back again!
  • The museum held the Jane Austen collection and it was really nice, all the pieces look like the same pieces worn in "The Bridgertons". The actual museum had a lot of historic pieces that were owned by the Tafts and Mrs. Taft Dad who initially owned the house. From jewelry boxes,to clothing styles and furniture.
  • Relatively small however there was quality works of art to admire. Two floors they do have an elevator though. There is also a parking garage, small number of spots. We went around 2pm and there was a sign saying the parking was full... there 25% empty spots. The traveling exhibition was of Jane Austin outfits which I throughly enjoyed. There was a restaurant on the first floor though we did not stop to eat. We went on aSunday, no cost for admission.
  • Attended the Jane Austin collection showing. It was wonderful! We are reenactors and the costumes were beautiful. Never been to the Taft before, but will definitely return for future showings.
