    I brought my class here & the guard on the Asian floor was a jerk. They weren't running, yelling or touching the art but he chewed them out for touching a WALL. It made us totally uncomfortable.

    DAM has a fantastic contemporary collection- especially if you're interested in the past thirty years. and though they rotate the exhibition, the things on view are always choice.

    Beware these doors. Inside there is no sign to indicate that this is an emergency exit. (Perhaps part of a relational aesthetics piece where you're meant to leave with a sense of shame for trying).

    Closed on Mondays, frustrating to know I'm within 100 feet of the finest display of Rothko in recent years.

    Look for all of Clare Twomey's "Red Dust" pieces throughout the museum. They are hidden in unexpected places for the Marvelous Mud exhibit.

    After going to the King Tut exhibit, take the kids to the area where they get to dress up as pharaohs and make Egyptian collars. Cute and fun.
