The museum has an amazing collection of artifacts from all over. An excellent compromise between art-loving dad and history-loving son. And a lovely campus.

Staff sitting at the front main entrance Saturday should be fired for how they treat people. My family, friends and anyone I know will never visit there again. What a disgrace to the museum. We drove 3 hrs to be treated like garbage. Very distasteful.

I love coming to the Penn Museum when I am in Philadelphia. It is a small museum that is packed with many interesting artifacts. Don't miss the Egyptian and Pre-Columbian Galleries which hold fascinating pieces of art and objects of Gods, funeral items and jewelry as well as many decorative objects. The new clothing exhibition "What We Wear" is engaging on how clothes change us when we put them on. The gardens are also a nice place to relax.
