THE WORLD’S FIRST MUSEUM DEDICATED TO GRAFFITI ART The Museum of Graffiti exhibits, educates, and celebrates the thousands of graffiti artists who have transformed walls in our public spaces into vibrant masterpieces. The museum is located in the heart of Wynwood. What was once a sleepy industrial neighborhood, Wynwood was transformed by graffiti artists into the largest open-air gallery in the world. Despite being a global arts destination, the Museum of Graffiti is Wynwood’s very first museum. While the main exhibitions are indoors, the Museum has programmed several of the exterior walls to present the work of today’s top graffiti artists. Now located at 276 NW 26th Street Miami FL 33127

This museum is a wonderful educational and fun experience. It is comprised of several buildings that educate visitors of the history of graffiti and writing styles, see artists in action and a gallery of art for purchase. Don't miss it!
The immersive experience. Each wall was covered from top to bottom with art and history about the pioneers of graffiti across the world.
This is a very small museum that I was hoping would give me a better appreciation of Graffiti, but it didn't. I read much of the presented content - found it mildly interesting but many of the "artist" stories were similar. Seemed very superficial in scope. I wanted to understand the difference between tagging which I consider vandalism and graffiti, which I thought was more of an artform. There seems to be some elements of art/design but I left still thinking it's more about the tagger's ego and his attempt to cover the world with his multiple names or gang names. Not art at all. I was also disappointed that the museum made no attempt to explain the negative effects of graffiti. ie., they can make you very uncomfortable about your environment and the destruction/degrading on historical building. While the bathrooms were good examples of graffiti on steroids, had they been any other place, I would be very leery about entering and using them. Wynwood runs the risk of becoming obsolete because the beautiful street art is damaged by tagging and graffiti along with every inch of surface; sidewalks, telephone poles, etc., now looks rundown and out of control. Its graffiti and tagging at its worst, especially if you had seen the area 5-8 years ago, when it was truly innovative. I read nearly everything. It took me about 1/2 hour - indeed a tiny museum not really worth the expense to enter. However the gift shop is free to enter and amusing.
I had such an amazing time walking through the museum and learning the history behind the graffiti culture. I love art in all forms, but graffiti is very unique.
Brilliant place. We thoroughly enjoyed the exhibits and learning about the history of graffiti and how street art has transformed Wynwood.
Had a great time reading how graffiti started interesting. Go check it out . You won’t be disappointed
The Museum of Graffiti is an interactive experience. Be sure to participate in the exhibit challenge and have fun
Such a dope place to visit. The art was amazing. Definitely recommend attending! You won't be disappointed. I wish this place was advertised more.
We had a wonderful time exploring the graffiti museum. The exhibits are very informative and take you through the artistic expression and history of graffiti. We also were fortunate to have a private graffiti class. Lexi helped us plan it and Ryan was our instructor. We sprayed on canvas outside and he went over different styles and techniques. My family loved it!
Miami has a number of wonderful art museums, This is not one of them, The museum itself is very small, about the size of someone's apartment and is only of interest in diehards of the study of the development of graffiti. You can seem better examples of the style in the streets throughout Wynwood for free,
I've waited for a while and today decided to see the Museum of Graffiti. I was very skeptical, but so pleased and engaged. The staff is very welcoming and shared information. The exhibits are well laid out, clear, and thoughtful. You cannot leave without gaining an appreciation for the graffiti and murals covering so many walls in Wynwood. If you're going to Wynwood, I'd put this attraction on your must-visit list. The gift shop has interesting stuff, too. They have moved recently, so make sure the address is correct - it's just around the corner. The ticket might be pricey, but it's worth it. If you live in Miami and have a library card, you can get a pass!
We have never been there! We walked in and there was a man in the front which said hello to us. There was lots of people coming in and out. My son went straight in as he loves art. After being there for about 8 minutes more and more people walked in. Then a snobby snobby woman walks in I am guessing the own when I say rude she was so rude and moves a sign which was hiding on the side and said you need to pay 17 ti enter museum, like why didn't anyone say it when we first walked in. There were many people that walked in with us bc there was no one saying anything about entrance fee. My son was still in the back and she didn't let me get him at first. I told her I would run in and grab him and she said no I will get him. Like really?! That was too much we didn't know we had to pay to come in so chill. I told her I would get him bc he is autistic and will not go with her the museum is 1 minute walk around not big at all. When I asked her she looked at me as if I was trying to commit a crime. I only wanted to grab my son and go. Just really really bad vibes from this woman. I hope you learn to treat people with kindness if this is your business I said thank you to her and she rolled her eyes. Really mad me feel terrible.
Loved this experience! One of the most fun parts of Miami for me beyond all of the obvious things people tend to say is that there are a number of unique museums (in addition to the typical art museums and such). This is one of them!
If you like street art this is the place to visit. We took the graffiti class for beginners with the founder, Alan, and this was probably the best part of our trip to Miami. Highly recommended! We also spent time in Wynwood and visited the Walls to complete the experience!
The entire wynwood neighborhood was cool. We went to the museum and then spent over a hour walking the streets looking at the wall art. Did not feel unsafe. I had my wife, 14, 9 and 4 month old children with me.
Not much to see. Only part of inside was open. Other section under construction. No outside displays when we were there. I didn't try the audio tour.
It a very cool museum. A lot of info and memorabilia detailing the history of graffiti art. If you’re an art lover, this is definitely worth checking out.
The essential visit after Wynwood Walls, the Museum of Garffiti is the real deal. A boutique museum that goes deep into the context and history of the art, giving you all the juicy details of the who, where, why and how of graffiti. Elegantly laid out, with surprises at every turn, you are guaranteed to be impressed with the significance of this movement and come away with a new appreciation for the dynamic art form. Go!
There are pay to park lots in the neighborhood including one across the street from the museum. The museum is a good history of the phenomenon of graffiti. There are examples of graffiti art including examples of different styles. There are informational videos and exhibits about some of the more prominent graffiti artists. There is a gift shop. There is a great deal of graffiti on the buildings in the vicinity of the museum, so you can test what you learned in the museum after you leave. COVID-19: The employees wear masks and visitors are expected to wear masks and practice social distancing inside the museum.
Very nice place the staff are friendly and helpful highly recommend going if your into art it’s very nice and exciting
