Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 150 reviews
Located in what was the original branch of the United States Mint, Mint Museum Randolph opened in 1936 in Charlotte’s Eastover neighborhood as the state’s first art museum. Today, in a beautiful park setting, intimate galleries invite visitors to engage with the art of the ancient Americas, ceramics and decorative arts, fashion, European and African art, among other collections. Resources include a reference library with over 18,000 volumes, a theater featuring lectures and performances, and a museum shop offering merchandise that complements both the permanent collection and special exhibitions.

We really enjoy our visits to the Mint Museum. For a smaller city the Mint does a great job curating new and interesting exhibits. Highly recommend.

Very educational experience. Viewed local artists' paintings and viewed an exhibit on gentrification in Charlotte. Also saw exhibit on the lives of the incarcerated.

This is a brand-new art museum in center city Charlotte, N.C. I found the museum to be interesting, but with significant limitations for serious lovers of modern art.

Nice small museum of modern art. Mostly European of a lot of artist not heard of in the US. Very nice private collection donated to Charlotte from the Bechtler family. Located just downtown around several other museums.
