San Jose Museum of Art is in the heart of downtown San Jose, close to lots of restaurants and other places of entertainment.
I visited on a Saturday afternoon. It was pleasant because there were no crowds, despite the fact that it was opening day for their featured "Miro" exhibit.
The entrance was bright with high ceilings and polite staff. The overall presentation of the artwork was clean with several local Bay Area artists on exhibition.
I was disappointed that the museum didn't showcase more renown artists. Even the Miro exhibit was marginal - a small room of lithographs. I had hoped to see more paintings or sculptures.
Essentially, if you're in the South Bay area and interested in visiting a contemporary art museum, but not willing to commute up to SFMOMA, this would be a decent, local alternative.
