What people say, in short
The Society of Illustrators appears in recommendations for smaller art museums, with one visitor particularly enjoying a past Edward Gorey exhibition. Another commenter thought the museum offered more than its size suggested and expected a weekday visit to be less busy. That crowd advice is one person's qualified suggestion, not a guarantee of an empty museum.
