" Wonderful! My favorite wings are the Asian gallery including a Tibetan Altar blessed by the Dalai Lama, the American landscape paintings which feature several splendid works from the Hudson River school, the historic Ballantine House which is a Victorian style home from the late 19th century and the science wing which has gems, geology demonstrations, simulations of a Highland and cave environment and a video on evolution narrated by James Earl Jones. This is my favorite place to go in Newark, fantastic events all year round! "

" The Tibetan altar is my favorite part. My family also enjoy the programs they offer throughout the year. It's very thoughtful of that for us who live in the city to enter for free. "

" Our Upward Bound students received a guided tour. We discussed the composition and elements in a painting that contributed to it's mood and meaning. The tour's art theme was lighting. The tour ended in a quick sketch activity that encouraged our students to draw and learn about highlights regardless of their artistic ability. There was a spacious area for our group to eat lunch. The planetarium was fantastic. Our show was about Egyptian constellations and telling time with the Stars. Make sure you seat opposite of the entrance door on the back row or you might have to bend your neck uncomfortably to view the show. I think the museum is amazing on what it has to provide. I am hoping to return on my own time to explore more. "

" I went with my 16 yr. old girl. We really had a great time. It may seem to be small but it has a lot to see. The price is reasonable and fair. Ask for student and seniors discount. I will definitely going back. "

" We love coming here with our family. The exhibits are varied and interesting. The planetarium is always fun and educational - at the end of the shows the curator takes the time to go through the current astronomical sky so that we can use the knowledge that same day (night). On Saturdays there's usually family friendly programming/tours that make the museum accessible and fun for kids. We love Newark Museum! "
