    Superb yet small enough to enjoy in an hour. Deep collection of contemporary and historic Outer Cape artists. Beautiful gift shop. Welcoming and friendly staff.

    Enjoyed a quick visit to this small museum. Wasn't the biggest fan of the collections on current display but the space, faculty and location were all fantastic. Im sure they have some really great expo's that come through. Free entry after 5pm on fridays!!
  • By Erik Johnson
    Surprisingly extensive. An impressive permanent collection of late 19th century and early 20th century American works by artists who taught and worked on The Cape including Charles Webster Hawthorne, Edward Hopper, Hans Hoffman, and others.
  • By Sarah Garofalo
    I had a wonderful time here! Spacious, cool, and relaxing away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. There’s something here for everyone of all ages. Definitely check it out!
  • By Cape Cod Star
    I love this place. It is a very creative and dynamic museum. Their members shows are wonderful and approachable. There is an openness and broad view of the arts that is incredibly refreshing.
  • By Ben G
    A wonderful break from Commercial St. during the day… not crowded, diverse exhibits and friendly staff. Also — a great gift shop and clean bathrooms!
