Awesome rotating visits, amazing permanent collection. Something for everyone to see from children (education and play center) to adults, modern to impressionist to African art and everything in between. Takes 2-3 hours to see everything, time slot selection, but give yourself extra time because they usually have everyone out exactly at closing time.

I go whenever I am in Atlanta and it never disappoints. There is always a new exhibit that is beautifully displayed, organized and explained, as well as 'permanent' exhibits that often seem to transition to keep things interesting. Parking is convenient. I haven't dined in the museum, but next door is a very pleasant restaurant for a nice lunch and beverage. Parking is also convenient.

Great start to the day. We did one of the docent tours, which was really good, and also wandered around on our own. I recommend looking into the docent tour times before going and including that as part of you visit. The docent provided some great insight to some pieces.

The High museum is located slightly north of the Midtown area of Atlanta. It is very close to Arts Center MARTA station. There are three main permanent collections for African, American and European art. I enjoyed all three and particularly some of the African-American paintings by the likes of Nellie Mae Rowe and Winfred Rembert who I had not come across before. There were good examples of more well known American artists such as Frank Stella, Mark Rothko, Mary Cassatt, Georgia O’Keeffe and John Singer Sargent. I also liked the large collection of work by Howard Finster. In the European section, there was a nice selection of posters by Toulouse-Lautrec, as well as paintings by Matisse, Renoir, Manet, Monet and several by Camille Pissarro. Admission price was $23.50 and the gallery is closed on Mondays.

Great art museum with lots of art. I went on a Wednesday and luckily received free admission and validated parking. There was live music in the lobby and lots of art to enjoy with the tunes from the lobby. Great way to spend a day whether visiting solo or with family/friends.

I came to see Renzo Piano's addition, the space is great. In particular, the top floor has specially designed skylight to admit in constant and diffused light for the art work. The exhibition was great, I particularly like the industrial design section.

While visiting Atlanta took the Marta subway to the High Museum, first time visitor. Note: For military veterans, the entrance is free. When traveling, I like to visit the local art museums, so are impressive and so not very much so. For a mid-size art museum, they have a good collection of impressionist paintings plus so good American realist paintings, so it exceeded my expectation. Worth a visit.
