7. Toledo Museum of Art and Center for Visual Arts

WEST END.   In 1901, Edward Drummond Libbey (of the Libbey Glass Factory) and his wife founded the Toledo Museum of Art. This museum has two main buildings: the Museum of Art, which houses the galleries and exhibits, and the Center for Visual Arts, which houses the museum's library and the University of Toledo's art department. World-renowned paintings, sculpture and decorative arts are found here. The Center for Visual Arts, a very modern building created by Frank Gehry, is itself an amazing architectural piece. Located on the outskirts of the West End near downtown. Offers school tours.   (© 10Best)

The Toledo Museum of Art is rated in the Top 10 Art museums in the US, and it lives up to its billing. There is no admission fee, it's not overly crowded, it's very large, the selection is immense, and the actual building is gorgeous. It all adds up to a great experience.
