    Great Fine Arts museum, not in its permanent collection but for its exhibitions, from Miles Davis to Faberge eggs represents a beautiful melange of artistic talents.

    Start from the 4th floor and be sure to pick up your free audio guide so you can listen to the specially curated music as you take in the art! Definitely adds to the sensory experience.

    Great place to visit if you are in Montreal. It is free to the general public and it is a great place to visit (free of charge) if you want to see some nice pieces of art

    Great collection. I absolutely enjoyed the contemporary art mixed with classical art pieces and how the each relates to the other. It was also interesting to see donations from Montreal‘s families

    Cavernous space that just keeps going. Nice collection of contemporary and modern art. Temporary exhibit space is largest attraction so be sure you're interested. Lovely day overall.

    Great permanent collection which is free and amazing exhibitions which last a few months so you have a lot of time to visit them many times.

    The Van Gogh to Kandinsky exhibition was really enjoyable. Probably the best one I've seen here.

    Their permanent collection is housed in many buildings on the campus. I spent five hours and only managed to see four of them. You'll hate MoMA after visiting this place.

    There’s a brooch with Napoleon’s real hair in it which is both gross and cool.

    Just saw the "Van Gogh to Kandinsky" exhibition. Not bad, worth the 20$ ticket. However, the title is a bit misleading, there were only 2 Van Gogh's, 3 Kandinsky's and 1 Picasso. Was expecting more.
