Next Time your going to Branson and your looking for something to put on your list of activities,Angel & Myself highly recommend this stop. This Museum should defintely be included on that list. It's well laid out and includes several very nice pieces. well worth the admission, Besides being a (Cool) place to get out of the summer sun. _Not the best place for young children_
