Best for families with children aged 3-10 who enjoy a short, focused museum visit without the pressure of a large institution. Free entry and central location make it an easy addition to an Orange day trip. The rotating exhibitions reward repeat visitors.

โ€œOrange Regional Museum located at the heart of Orange City and free to enter. 1P street parking is available just outside the museum. Portion of the museum is closed to renovate during our visit. Anyway, the overall experience is great especially appreciate the attitude of the staff.โ€

โ€œWhen we visited in June 2022, there was a lovely interactive exhibit by James Gulliver Hancock and it was whimsical, interesting and we'll thought out. I think both adults and children can enjoy the exhibit. The exhibits change regularly, so make sure to visit often. Also don't miss out on the very nice orange regional gallery next doorโ€

โ€œGreat place to view the Wynne winner in the Achies series. Not crowded, free entry. Excellent venue. Coffee shop nearby. The descriptions of the local paintings were at the right height and right size of font.โ€
