The Cedar Rapids Museum of Art is housed in a really neat looking building on 3rd Ave SE. It is a nice museum considering the size of Cedar Rapids. The parking lot is located behind the museum on 2nd Ave Se.
Right now, the Grant Wood display is going on. It is really a great event! Not to be missed! My kids even enjoyed it though I think that my daughter liked the gift shop best.

The current Grant Wood exhibit is something that should not be missed. The museum itself has a lot of local artwork, from Grant Wood, to Marvin Cone, to some more current works. It's fun to take friends from out of town to visit the museum and gift shop.
PROS: Wonderful exhibits
CONS: Admission costs are high.

Okay, what can you say about any small museum that manages to land a stay with American Gothic? Wonderful! Having said that, I am impressed that they have managed to avoid falling into the Grant Wood Only trap that would be so easy to do considering that he lived and worked here. Kudos to Terry Pitts for a job well done.
