Nice art museum in a gorgeous old building. Some things I didn't "get", but that's art. I had a great afternoon wandering around this place.

Went there with high expectations however was not very impressive. Something to see for sure but was not worth that much. Maybe depends on what kind of display of art is on that month or so.
