Fascinating evening enjoying the OMA Swell Plates evening. Such a cool concept enjoying tasting dishes at the same time and experience creative artwork and recommend checking out future events. Always a fantastic time visiting and definitely check it out.
What a local treasure! Open, breezy space. Something to experience for diverse tastes. Younger children may do ok if supervised. Everyone working or volunteering there were exceedingly friendly, helpful, engaging.
First, I visited the student part of the museum, and I didn't find it attractive, but after that, I went to the professional part and the second floor which I recommend you to visit for sure. This was a different world. The creativity in the art pieces will amaze you. The installation is perfect. I enjoyed my visit.
A gem of an art museum with excellent range and quality of exhibits. A cultural oasis in North County, with visitors coming from LA, Orange and Riverside Counties, Camp Pendleton, all parts of the US, and of course, throughout San Diego. Not precocious, welcoming staff, a joy to visit with or without kids! Award-winning educational programs for all ages. Free parking!
We had our wedding ceremony and reception here. We loved how flexible the space and the venue were. We had multiple local food and drink vendors with no issue. We brought our own flowers and decor and rented equipment. It was awesome! Plenty of room for our 50 guests to mingle, dance, sit and eat. The band set up was great. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a great value and flexibility.
