    I recently took a small group of 7th grade art students to this very impressive gallery, and even though the tour was an hour and a half, the students were very interested and had lots of questions! The docents and employees are incredibly nice and accommodating. They accommodated my group last minute when other plans fell through, and I'm so grateful because this turned out to be much better! What an incredible collection of artifacts, the largest collection outside of Asia, apparently, with many artifacts dating back thousands of years. Definitely recommend!
