text: I have to admit I was expecting more from SMoCA.  The only thing that the museum suffers from is it's size.  It's small and the jury is still out on whether or not that is a bad thing.  The exhibits I saw \"space is the place\" and a collection of modern masterpieces from a local families collection was very very impressive.  \n\nFlow throughout the gallery space was quite nice though leaves you wanting much more.  The architecture by Bruder is minimal and to the point which is quite refreshing.  If you visit don't snooze on the great James Carpenter Glass installation and the James Turrell skyscape on your left as you enter the museum.  \n\nThe gift shop was nice and had some great art/design books.   I would've liked to pick up a \"space is the place\" poster but they didn't have any.  Definitely recommended for the quirky exhibits and of course the Turrell and Carpenter installations.  Wait...maybe I did get what I expected out of SMoCA.   \n\n\nMy bad, SMoCA.
