"This is a nice museum with some great exhibits. It’s really well laid out, with nice displays, and a good variety of artists. There’s an okay gift shop, too, filled with photography books, and a great old photo booth that prints out really nice photos!! They make a great souvenir of your museum visit- I have mine hanging on my wall! Really nice, and it’s free one day a month, so you should plan to come to Balboa Park on that day, if you want to save money and don’t mind the crowds!"
