Birmingham Museum of Art Concerts 2025

Awesome. The collections are diverse, and the historical background was insightful. The artifacts are so well displayed and in perfect condition. You need a whole day here, so many rooms with new thought-provoking history. The collections were impressive. The black hair gallery was disappointing and stereotype. Staff and customer service were helpful, respectful, and watchful but discrete. Big kudos to the museum staff and supporters. Well worth the visit.

Pretty small museum for the city. It’s about 2 floors and includes a sculpture garden. I would say it’s just an average/standard museum in comparison to other cities. We were done in about an hour. I was not particularly impressed by the collection, however they had a small exhibit called “Nappy” that focused on the hair of African American women and that was pretty incredible. I was almost disappointed that they didn’t have more pieces as this was the best part of the museum. I would come back because it’s free and a good place to visit, but don’t expect anything too large. They also had a paid exhibit on Disney movie costumes for a price, but we did not go in there. The museum shop was also small and half was all Disney related stuff due to the exhibit so that was a bit of a bummer.

This museum is such a resource to the city! This art museum features free admission (donation boxes provided), free (limited) designated parking, rotating special exhibits, weekly discussions focusing on a specific piece, special night-life events, and an event venue all wrapped up in this marbled, art-deco building. Birmingham truly is lucky! Recently, they recently partnered with Juniper, a local restaurant, operate as a cafe on weekdays during lunch and on specific weekends listed on the museum’s website. I cannot wait to go on a lunch date here with my wife! Definitely support this wonderful organization.

What a surprise!!! I took a tour and found the Birmingham Museum of Art. It was great to see different relics and paintings from different eras. BUT the big surprise was Disney’s Heroes and Villains. A display of the actual costumes worn by actors and actresses from the live action films and shows!!!

Beautiful artwork and nicely organized. We went on the last day that the Birmingham Project was there and it was a fantastic exhibit. Also, completely free!! Has a nice gift shop too.
