We had a great experience at the Museum of Us. I took my daughter for a little summer get out. The Museum has a variety of exhibits that are very well organized with lots of information. Our favorite part of the visit was the PostSecret installation. We spent the most time there and even decided to divulge our own secrets and place them in the post box at the museum. We have plans to go back to see if ours have been posted. ***There is some graphic content, so if you have young kids that know how read be careful. I would also say that some of the things I read could be triggering for child abuse, SA, self-harm, and other sensitive subjects. I did not see any kind of advice posted at the actual museum.

this museum was a little underwhelming. i came in not knowing what this museum was about. they did showcase a bunch of history about us humans. a LOT of reading and pausing. nonetheless, it was cool and worth going one time.

What a fun and knowledgeable time, for our whole family. There is so much history. Every exhibit was interesting. My favorite area was the secret letters. The bell tower was not open on our visit. -Regina

The Post Secret exhibit was moving and so necessary. My teens and I felt it was one of the most important exhibit for humans to see today. Bringing a sense of humanity and especially knowledge about the local impacts of how humans impact one another made this museum a must see.
