Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens

Fodor's Review:

The world-famous Wark Collection of early-18th-century Meissen porcelain is just one reason to visit this former riverfront estate, which includes 13 permanent galleries with more than 5,000 items spanning more than 8,000 years and 3 acres of riverfront gardens reflecting northeast Florida's blooming seasons and indigenous varieties. Art Connections allows kids to experience art through hands-on, interactive exhibits. One of the museum's newest additions, the Thomas H. Jacobsen Gallery of American Art, focuses on works by American artists, including Max Weber, N.C. Wyeth, and Paul Manship.

  • Cost: $10, free Tues. 4-9
  • Open: Tues. 10-9, Wed., Thurs., Fri., and Sat. 10-5, Sun. noon-5.
