Nice museum with lots of interesting things to explore. It is focused heavily on items related to the Grand Rapids Michigan area such as the furniture industry, local wildlife, local history and more. They have a really cool planetarium. They also get in various traveling exhibits. Most of the museum does not change much so the traveling exhibits keep you coming back.
Great place to take the family. We have visited twice. They have special exhibits. We saw the Mind Benders (FABULOUS for all ages) as well as the Mermaids, Unicorns and Dragons ( pretty good ). It is within walking distance in the downtown area along the river. It is close to other museums, shopping and restaurants.
Great place for couple, families, or just yourself. Fun all the way around. Very educational. The antique carousel that's refurbished to it's glory, for adults and kids to ride on. It's very enjoyable. Also I've been to the Grand Rapids Public Museum for a wedding reception which is absolutely gorgeous, fun, and creative place. Food, appetizers was delicious.
This place is great for families. Their planetarium is really fun and nice. They have a gift shop with a variety in items and prices. A lot is hands on so kids can interact, but there's enough for adults too for enjoyment. They have a carousel. Their cafe had a kids menu and all food is decently priced! The view from the cafe is beautiful. The parking lot is across the street so there is parking, but not attached to the museum. It's a great family experience!
This museum has a very beautiful location with wonderful views of the river. The staff was helpful while still giving us space to explore at our own pace. I wish more cities had museums like this. My favorite part was the old time views of Grand Rapids from the past. Really gives you some perspective of the changes the city has gone through. I would recommend this place to children and adults alike!
