Huntington Museum of Art - Museum in Huntington - 2033 McCoy Rd, USA

20230904 This museum is huge, but I came here for the trails. I was the first to hike the trails this morning, and during my hike, I realized I was clearing the trails of cobweb. There was a huge spider web occupying it. Thank goodness I managed to go arounding. The trails are well marked, and some par5s are more narrow. The steps down mean going back up toward the end. We hiked 1.41 miles. Most of the trails are shadowed, which was nice. I parked at the museum, and started with the Sensory Trail and ended at the back of the museum.

This museum is such a gem - a must see if you’ll be within a couple of hours. A subtropical conservatory complete with a Chihuly sculpture, nature trail, regional glass collection, near East art and weapons and pottery exhibits, firearms exhibit, cool gift shop, compelling regional photography, and an impressive collection of contemporary American art by famous artists to include Warhol, Frankenthaler, and Rauschenberg?! I’ll take it!

This is a pretty nice museum overall. Really enjoyed the collection of vintage fire arms. Might take an hour to go through. Took my girlfriend for free on a weekend one week. Something nice to go look through once or twice a year. Have a cool plant area as well.

Popped in while passing through and was very impressed. Excellent exhibits provided a great education and the staff was very friendly. Even has a conservatory with a Chihuly sculpture and terrific fish tank. Great setting too - away from all the hubub with beautiful sculptures and trees all around.

The plant and wildlife area is really interesting and full of unique plants and small amphibians and fish. The large sculpture in the pond is also beautiful and adds a nice atmosphere. The rest of the museum is primarily dominated by a large single family collection that was donated, a traveling exhibit, two resident artists, a small exhibit on the history of guns and weaponry, and a small middle eastern exhibit. Nice overall experience, but not a lot of truly standout exhibits.

This was a cute little museum. We spent a little over 2 hours here and got to see everything. Nice setup. The conservatory was phenomenal, it was my favorite part. It was absolutely worth coming here.

I got my micro Mothman Squishable today! Thank you Sophia for the kind note on the packing slip! Glad I could support you all! ❤️ I’m a few hours away but I’ll have to visit soon!

What a wonderful museum! I saw interesting artists and innovative materials/techniques. If you are in the Huntington area, be sure to visit this art museum! I am glad I did.
