Take the time to read the info with the displays. Very interesting for those interested in history and textiles.
There are some fascinating exhibits there. I would start on the 3rd floor and work my way down.
The collection is interesting, yet rather small. I am hoping it'll soon expand into the empty room on the lower floor.
It's small, but interesting. Hopefully, there will be temporary exhibits of textiles from around the world.
The gift shop is open to anyone, even if you don't tour the museum. They have some nice items.
Smaller than I expected but had unique displays and was well worth the money and time.
It is a specialized niche museum and not for all but if one appreciates history and fabrics and antiquities, it is very interesting indeed. Four sisters went together to visit and all appreciated and enjoyed it. Thanks.
For such a small museum that boasts of a large collection I would have expected what was on display to awe inspiring than tiny pieces of Peruvian and Coptic textiles, which are not much more interesting in person than they are in text books.
I was expecting a lot of carpets or hangings. There was a big exhibit from Peru, and some from Africa, that were bits and pieces of old disintegrating materials, which I didn't find interesting. Wondering if the exhibition is changed up on a regular basis.
This museum has a very poor collection and execution of presented fragments comparing to other museums. There is almost no interesting fact, display or picture about any piece of the collection. The over all feeling was that I was walking into someone's private home to see what they have put up in 5 minutes. My time was wasted there. I was very happy I did not pay the full price and very sad I had to pay anything at all. In fact, coming from a Russian background, I can say that my grandmother's attic has more story, variety, colors and models than this museum multiplied by 100.
