Customer Review
We visited the Yale art museum several years ago on our trip to Acadia. It was really nice. Lots of exhibit several floors. We took the stairs. Not sure if there was an elevator. It’s nice to rock around this area. Highly recommend. They had a lot of coins, which were very interesting. Highly recommend.

Very interesting museum and much, much bigger than i thought it was going to be. Very well organized, and each floor has their own sections. The dinosaur exhibit is the best one in my opinion because of the interactive info tablets! Can’t wait to come back again.
