From paintings by Renoir to sculptures by Alexander Calder to a vast glass collection, you'll find wonderful treasures here. Founder and first president Edward Drummond Libbey wanted to build a place where art was accessible to everyone, hence the museum's free admission policy, which continues to this day. « less

For a smaller city, Toledo has a wonderful art museum. Everytime I go there I find something I hadn't seen before. It's usually uncrowded- with lots of room to stand back and observe. There is a new glass pavillion- and you can catch a glass blowing demonstration most times during the day. Definitely recommend this attraction during any trip to... more

My third trip to this amazing museum with my five year old granddaughter, who after the first visit was eager to return the next day . In this dying, lovely city, you certainly have at least one beautiful, place left to enjoy and grow. Don't let them take this away from you. more

We've been to art museums all over the US & Europe & we didn't expect the quality we found here to be in Toledo. I'm not being condescending; it is #70 in population in the US. An amazing treat is the glass museum across the street with a collection of art glass from antiquity through the ages in a building... more

I did not expect an art museum of this size and quality in Toledo. It was far and away the best thing we did in the city! The ancient section was wonderful. The religious section even had part of a monastery/convent in it. I usually don't like the "modern" sections, but this one was interesting. There are really just too... more

We went to the Toledo Museum of Art in late November on a Friday due to the recent opening of the glass pavillion and had a great time. Toledo has a real gem in its art museum and best of all it is free, not crowded, and the day we were there was open to 10:00 P.M.! We really enjoyed... more

Agree with all the other reviews. Was not expecting much given the rest of Toledo but this is the best! A small, uncrowded gem with exceptional pieces. We spent several hours there and didn't see half of it. The new Glass Pavilion is being built across the street but isn't open yet. We will definitely return to see the rest... more

I have visited many famous art museums all over the world so I really wasn't expecting too much. It had a great selection of all kind of art from classical to modern. It also has a small sampling of asian art. more

This museum has such an outstanding collection of Old Masters, Impressionists, American painters, and modern art that it is worth a long journey just to see it. Admission is free, and the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful to visitors. more

I grew up in Toledo, and remember going to The Toledo Museum of Art countless times as a child. There's the rub. You get spoiiled, and you begin to think you can see treasures like this everywhere and any time. In all the places I have lived and travelled, I have found very few museums that can match the magnificent... more
