Fantastic museum with loads of quality outsider art in a beautiful setting. The displays are attractive and informative allowing for 360 degree views of many of the pieces. I plan to return to see more of their collections.
Beautiful facility. Unique and unusual works. Each display of art work or created object was wonderfully displayed with enough written information or even old time movies to make it very interesting and thought provoking. An Open mind is advised, especially on the very out of the ordinary second floor! 3rd floor seemed calming in its very open display. 1st floor showplaces many Wisconsin backyard artist, including concrete statues I remembered from " up.north". All forms of creativity , art and "art".
Wonderfully curated museum. 100's of artworks by each artist in each installation. Focused on localized obsessive creators. Each grouping creates an image of their life's focus.
The museum itself is spacious and inviting. Curious wall angles season the open spaces creating comfortable alcoves to view. Staff is helpful and doesn't interfere.
It's definitely a must-see museum.

Fabulous building an art. The art preserve showcases the work of more than 30 environment builders – artists whose imaginations and worldviews take immersive and physical form, who often turned their entire homes and lives into works of art.
Now my second favorite art museum, behind the Milwaukee Public Museum
There's something for everyone here, and I have actually heard of the majority of the artists here (which is rare for me)
For those who are wondering how long they should spend here, I spent exactly 1 hour here

Stunning, unique & culturally varied exhibit. The building itself is beautiful, the exhibits are thoughtfully curated with a lot of respect for the artists. You leave with a sense of positive unease and provocation.
I'm fascinated by people who make art, and don't give a rat's patootie whether people think it's strange, confusing, over the top, or even crazy. This place is dedicated to those people. Even the building design supports that idea.
Admission is free, but contributions are welcome.
Insider tips: Use the bathrooms. They're amazing. Also, use the elevator, at least once. It's the biggest one I've ever been in. You could throw a small wedding in there!

Very interesting concept of a viewing/living storage place for large collections of art that need a home after going on exhibit elsewhere. Very nice greeters, fun activity guide for children and very stroller friendly. Only thing that confused me was family restrooms were on the second level, otherwise great experience! Be sure to make an online entry reservation.
