Sébastien Delattre: Un musée municipal, ça vaut vraiment la peine ? Assurément ! Ne passez pas à côté de celui ci, des collections très éclectiques, des momies aux esturgeons ! Particulièrement bien réalisée, la ruelle qui vous embarque un siècle plus tôt dans l'ancien Grand Rapid. Des façades et des intérieurs de magasins, de petits artisans. Superbe !

John True: But it's going to be get much better when they can move into their new space, I'm sure!Right now it's very small and hard to miss. Even with Google I sent a full circle passing it once from my parking garage :PBut there is a lot of heart and care about information here and research here! If you are in the area and have a moment you should go.He did not tell me who he read but the man working there seemed a great person and very easy to talk to.I'm only giving 3 starts because it is small and easy to miss, but I think it will be amazing in its new digs! They are still ironing things out so it will be awhile before this happens, but I wish them the best!

Jose Mejias: It was an interesting experience.

TRIPPPLEZ: The Children's Books! My Fav Part IS FOR THE KIDS OF THE FUTURE!!

Liesa Swejkoski: Close to parking garage which is a plus for me. Short walk. Small venue. Friendly docents. I learned a lot. I was hoping for more art by local African- American artists. Most was put away for the Henrietta Lacks display. She's my hero.

David Brown: This isn't a Museum, it's literally a room, please don't pay for parking, you'll waste two dollars or less, leave car running glimpse and come out.

Delma Washington: Like the quilt on lynching. Beautiful and delicate piece with a lot of thought and research put in it. The many people who have lost their lives what a tribute to them!

Alyssa Barber: This museum is overflowing with stories, artwork, artifacts, etc. I am excited to see them in a bigger space. Shoutout to George for being awesome and sharing a little bit of history and his journey with us during our visit.

a s: Similar review to others, a great place to visit with lots of information, with opportunity to buy original artworks. The space is small, but I had a nice conversation with George, a volunteer who mentioned a larger premises is being scoped out, which would hopfully give them the opportunity to also display their artifacts which are in storage. Some good local history and stories too

T B: Traveled from out of state to visit. I checked the website to confirm days/hours of business, and called the telephone number listed on the website to reconfirm. However, no one answers the phone, and when it goes to voicemail, the mailbox is full.****THANK U for the response. On my way to the airport, i had the opportunity to stop by for a quick visit. Very nice museum.

Sarah Hampton: I really like this place. So much history detailing the accomplishments of African Americans to this country, as well as the world.

Gabrielle Hensch: Always super clean, staff is friendly. I like that the art isn't always the same like some museums, so you can go every few months or so and there's new things to see. If you don't like art, I definitely don't recommend but if you're into art, you will definitely enjoy yourself.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Yes …More

Megan Murphy: didnt come for a specific exhibit but was a nice experience and saw some cool art. a smaller museum than some i have been too but had 3 floors with pieces of different styles. free admission on tuesdays. styles were a bit scattered and i think futuristically it would be cool to see a more experiential museum in this space.Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No Price for adult entry Free …More
