Review:

The Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art is a non-collecting museum that displays original and innovative American contemporary art. The exhibits are always changing, and since the museum's founding in 1964, it has displayed the works of over 8,000 artists. The museum hopes to connect visitors to contemporary art using hands-on workshops, tours, and presentations, and by on-site and classroom programs.

Guided tours of the museum are presented by curators and artists, and take visitors through the two-story 1783 building that houses the museum. There is a two-acre sculpture garden on the museum's grounds, a gift shop, and an education center for children and for the professional development of teachers.
