Aah yes. They didn't put the seat down either.
Oh, I put the seat down. It's the lid that was in question. Some of those modernist's works look like they shit right on the canvas.

I have no idea what this place is. Is it new and if not why did it just now become a thread?
It's not new, but it is newly greatly expanded.

Anyone have any advice on getting in here with a "ticket"? Second month in a row I have been online at 10am on the dot only to find all Saturday shifts fully booked.
I've been dying for Julian's review of the Glenstone.
Highly recommend. Would/will go again. A very relaxing place.

No. If you read all of this thread you would know Vas gave me his tickets for which I have sent him a 9:30 Gift Card.

So is the only source for a ticket Glenstone Museum Vas's generosity?
I forgot that I had to get on at 10AM on the 1st to score one of these and my only hope at an October visit is highly unlikely due to my bad mojo on scoring tickets

Ive been three or four times now and start looking 2-3 days before your desired date every hour or so. You’d be surprised how easy it is to get tickets if you only need 2. Don’t know if they hold some back or people say they can’t use them but it’s worked for me two out of two times attempted.

It used to be that you didn't need tickets if you rode the RideOn bus there. I dont know if thats still the policy.

They tabled this because of COVID. The bus doesn’t even stop there anymore (unless it restarted recently).
That said, once this arrangement resumes: this is the way and we should all be grateful to grateful for sharing this with us, a strategy I used for one of my four visits.

The sample art I checked out does nothing for me… don’t see myself going but enjoy
Their collection is, honestly, 50% crap. The entire “museum” is a tax shell. They have some incredible art — the cabins in the back and room 2 (the standard shit) — but their hit rate couldn’t be more off as buyers.
As far as pure “have they bought the zeitgeist,” Phillips and Kreeger trounce them. That said, I’m glad Glenstone exists and it’s the most interesting thing to happen to modern US art museums in decades. (Conceptually.)
