   EDITOR REVIEW:

MYERS PARK.   On par with some of the best-known art museums in the country, Charlotte's Mint Museum is the oldest and most prestigious art museum in the state. Over 81,000 square feet of American, European, pre-Colombian, Spanish colonial and a smattering of local and regional art. The Mint also houses one of the largest collections of porcelain and ceramic art. Don't miss the Mint! A ticket purchased for the Mint Museum of Art is also good for same-day admission to Uptown's Museum of Craft + Design.

Visit the Mint Museum of Art, the state's first art museum. Housed in a building that was once a branch of the U.S. Mint, the museum features a diverse collection of American art, pre-Columbian art, historic costumes, contemporary art, and ceramics. (from Southern Living)
