Franklin G. Burroughs - Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum, Myrtle Beach

We originally were headed for Savannah's playground but traffic had us turn around and miss our way. So, we followed the yellow brick road to the grandest of strand treasures at the Art Museum! 💕 What a wonderful place to visit with family or friends. There are 2 floors of professional art installations with seasonal exhibits. Everything is accessible via elevator and/or ramps with plenty of viewing room. You can experience The World of Frida through September 2022. They offer an Eye Spy game for children and a lovely sitting area with ocean views and a community puzzle to work on. There are classes you can take and a gift shop full of artistic treasures. New goals, I would love to have my own artwork exhibited in a collection here some day! Definitely going to become a member and become a part of this thriving and professional New Earth art center! Don't forget to leave a donation if you are able to when you stop by! I won't spoil the show with too many photos but just enough to give you a sneak peak of what to expect! 🙏🥰

More different and better than I had imagined! The ladies working the front were welcoming and explained to me the layout and off I went. Lol even the building felt like art to me. Loved the pieces. Pleasantly surprised to see the work to 2 talented black artists as well. Was free admission but was happy to donate! You should visit!

Although the museum is small, the exhibits are well done, beautiful works. The gift shop not only had works from the exhibit artists, but also items from the local artists and fair trade artists. Definitely worth a visit when you're in the area!

Visited this museum during our family travels to Myrtle Beach and really enjoyed the Frida exhibit. It was very interesting to see all of the artwork from various artists and their interpretation of Frida's life or some aspect thereof. Even saw one from a fellow Chicagoan. The customer service was excellent from our greeting, to the history of the museum, information on the exhibit, and souvenir purchases.

Great free small art museum. Easy to find. They have an elevator, if needed. Lots of great curated showings. Very bright and spacious inside. We come here at least once every time we are near Myrtle Beach. Did I mention that it's free? Be sure to make a donation to help them keep going.
