  I was in San Juan for work. Had time one day to stop by here as it was near my hotel, and I was totally shocked how great it was. Amazing pieces and the people working there were so friendly!  more »

  Our taxi dropped us off here and we toured the museum. It is nice and offers some interesting Puertorican artists' works. Generally, it was much smaller than some American art museums we have visited.  more »

  Only the main floor was open when we visited, but it was still a good collection inside the permanent exhibits. There was a mixture of historic and contemporary pieces and good interpretative information in both Spanish and English. The real highlight for us was the sculpture garden that was full of many interesting plants (and quite a few large, entertaining iguanas) in addition to the art itself.

  Small but interesting collection. I actually prefer smaller museums that aren't so overwhelming. We happened to go in a Saturday, and it was free admission! Family day. Guided tours available.
