Museum

I admit it: I'm a craft whore. I knit. I quilt. I sew. The textile arts intrigue me. This museum deserves your attention even if you couldn't care less about those things. In 2006, they exhibited millions of dead tropical insects cunningly pinned in patterns to mimic Victorian wallpaper. These curators are crazy/fabulous. War carpets from Afghanistan, obis from Japan, fur upholstered toys. It's all here, folks, and the gift shop kicks ass. Bring the kids; there's an interactive exhibit, too.

A must see!!! The new addition to the museum is quite elaborate and the Dinosaur exhibit is suppose to be one of the best in North America. My daughter absolutely loved it!

They have a wonderful new venue with great exhibits

Enjoy the new presentation

it has a wonderfully eclectic collection of ceramics

It has one of the best Chinese collections in the world.

I like historical artifacts and the place is unique and perfect for a date..

I love the Textile Museum. It always has exquisite exhibits, it is small and easy to get through in less than an hour so you never get museum fatigue, and the gallery shop there is the best kept secret gift shop in the city, with unbelievably reasonable prices for carefully curated fine textile items from all over the hand-made world.

BAT CAVE. And, like, all the important antiquities.

I remember going there as a fourth grader and getting freaked out looking at the mummies.
