The Cafe validates parking... they don't have parking there and don't validate. Trendy to the point it is boring to me (Asian theme of struggling with identity, paintings of the body natural with its imperfections, and blah, blah. Not family friendly, which is sort of refreshing in a way, but...and then it is in the classical old post office building... More

Great diversity and interesting exhibits that encourage the young and old to see what they can share from the images...

Hey, art lovers...the San Jose Museum of Art is pretty good. Granted, it's not the Louvre or the Musee d'Orsay, but it's a good, cheap, thought-provoking experience. The exhibits range from weird to extraordinary. I've been to many of the greatest art museums in the world and this isn't one of them, but I have to say that I was... More
