Magical Memories Entertainment had the pleasure of providing DJ entertainment for the Bruce Museum’s Family Benefit, and we cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to work with their team. From start to finish, the staff at the museum was organized, professional, and incredibly welcoming. They made sure every detail was covered, allowing us to focus on creating a fun and engaging atmosphere for the families in attendance.

It was clear how much thought and care went into planning this event. Their team was attentive, communicative, and truly invested in making sure the evening was a success, not just for the guests but also for the vendors like us. It is always a joy to collaborate with a team that is so dedicated and easy to work with.

We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with the Bruce Museum and look forward to supporting more of their events in the future. They made our job seamless, and it is no surprise their events are always such a hit!

The exhibits are thoughtfully curated, and there was interactive space and a video presentation of the artist's work. It is a well attended museum, and easy to navigate inside. The exhibits are wonderful, and the patrons respectful. The staff is welcoming and helpful. Loved the experience. Plus, there's a huge gorilla sculpture outside that is just a trip, and fun for kids.

Newly renovated, it is a beautiful space. The exhibitions are thoughtful and well presented. The cafe has wonderful offerings and it looks like an outdoor option for nicer weather. Also a great gift shop. Well worth the trip.

Exceptional museum, especially for children where you can see tons of art, tons of minerals, tons of fossils and tons of live aquatic animals from Connecticut. It is a smaller version of the Met Plus natural history that is much less crowded. Strongly recommend.

It is free for children on summer weekends and $20 for adults/ $15 for students. They also have a lot of fun activities for kids and we got to enjoy the clay fossil making activity, with a teacher on site (thank you Ms Gaby)

Plan to spend around 2 hours and enjoy the amazing park after or before.

They also have a nice cafe inside

This is a Really pretty museum and it’s a nice hour or so out of your day.Nice break from the hustle and bustle. I really enjoyed the mineral gallery as I’m a passionate fan of colored stones. It’s worth a visit and they have various artists to take in.

Decided to spend a Sunday morning languidly touring the Bruce Museum for my first visit. What a gem! Who knew that the 2024 annual competition for the Federal Duck Stamp artwork was held here? For that matter, who even knew about the Duck Stamp history? And those glorious ducks! Saw wonderful works by Andrew Wyeth. As a (very) fledgling pencil artist myself, I was thrilled to study his watercolors up close. But, when I reached the Joel Sternfeld photograph "Exhausted Renegade Elephant" I simply started crying. So sad, such a metaphor, so moving.

Finding the Bruce is easy, parking is free and plentiful, and the signage is excellent. The content of the Museum is just right for a single day visit and seemed very engaging for the children I observed. I didn't eat in the cafe but it looked bright. clean, and inviting. Now, keep this next tidbit a secret.....please. The giftshop has a lovely selection of perfect games, jewelry, and other items at remarkably low prices. Don't tell anyone!

Nice little museum! Many wonderful exhibits from gorgeous impressionist paintings to natural history fossils and the like. There are activities for kids to do every so often, which is really nice. Great place to spend a cold, rainy afternoon.
