What people say, in short
Many visitors recommend the Frist Art Museum, and one visitor calls it a superb art museum in a historic Broadway building with galleries of varying sizes. Another visitor goes back whenever a new temporary show opens, and one who went recently enjoyed it and found its size suits a short itinerary. A caveat is that library passes that cover entry can have a waitlist, as one visitor notes.
