点评:Lovely museum offering a calm and interesting break from Salem’s touristy madness. I visited on a Sunday afternoon and spent 2.5 hours visiting mainly special exhibitions. I like that the museum has lots of smaller collections and exhibitions that aren’t overwhelming to walk through. The downstairs main one is large but I found it well curated and thoughtful. It was about belonging in America and juxtaposed colonial art and viewpoints with native / indigenous ones. Great insight into local and US wide history and art. I also loved the small Moby Dick book design and illustrations through the ages exhibition.
There were lots of family friendly exhibitions and activities too. Cafe is ok, I only bought a coffee that was a great filter one.
Good value of you make sure to spend time there. They have a good locker and cloakroom system that’s free too.
翻译:这座可爱的博物馆,让您远离塞勒姆喧嚣的游客,享受宁静而有趣的休憩。我周日下午参观了这里,花了两个半小时,主要参观了特别展览。我喜欢博物馆里有很多小型藏品和展览,走遍这些展览不会让人感到不知所措。楼下的主展览空间很大,但我觉得它策展得很好,很有创意。它探讨了美国归属感,并将殖民时期的艺术和观点与本土/原住民的艺术和观点并置。对当地乃至美国的历史和艺术有了很深入的了解。我也很喜欢那个小型的《白鲸》书籍设计和插画展,它贯穿了各个时代。
还有很多适合全家一起参观的展览和活动。咖啡馆还不错,我只点了一杯很棒的滤泡咖啡。
如果你觉得物有所值,一定要去那里待一会儿。他们有很棒的储物柜和衣帽间系统,而且是免费的。
