  • Small museum, half of it was under renovation so wasn't a lot to see. On the plus side there was no charge. Staff was friendly.

  • Fantastic small museum showcasing history about Tarpon Springs through art, displays, and historical history of the area. The volunteers are very friendly and very helpful with any questions. This is a must visit if you live in the area.
  • Attended a Tarpon Arts Lunch and Learn program at the Heritage Museum. Their meeting room has horrid accoustics! I do NOT recommend this space for any type of special events until they implement sound mitigation. The program information was helpful. The speaker was very knowledgeable. Alas, he discussed art but showed crowded small photos of the art. The projector wasn't even aimed at the top of the screen so most people had to crane their necks around other people's heads trying to see. The lunch was fine. Alas, it was served in big single-use plastic boxes with prepackaged plastic tools, napkin etc. So much trash!
  • This place was surprisingly larger than you would think walking in. The building itself is very cool and there are so many different things in the museum from different eras. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful as well.
  • This is a treasure in a beautiful park. The city has various large gatherings at the Museum and we had our Sister Cities International Annual Meeting recently. What a night.
  • So nice and right inside the beautiful Craig Park. Ask about the combo deal with the Safford House Museum. They might not offer it.
