Redlin Art Center features original and prints of Terry Redlin’s artwork. Museum is three levels with two gift shops. Paintings are well-organized, with short descriptions underneath each frame that detail the inspiration behind the artwork.Staff is friendly & helpful. Gift shops have a wide variety of Terry Redlin-inspired items for everyone. Museum is very clean, even the bathrooms. Admission is free.

I enjoyed the lovely display of beautiful artwork. This is truly a museum gem. Good stop for all ages. I didnt take pictures of the artwork because of expected privacy rules. The staff is very helpful and the gift shops are great and a thoughtful way to share art with the public.

Take time to read the descriptions below the beautiful original paintings and you will understand what inspired Terry to create each one. The stories behind the paintings are as inspiring the paintings themselves! Terry Redlin was an extremely talented and yet humble man.

A must see, even if you are not a fan of wildlife art, you will surely be amazed in what this museum offers. Much more than just paintings on the wall. A gift shop, antiques, and an amazing landscaped garden outside and and even a movie theater, starring Terry Redlin himself. Be prepared to be WOWED and be sure to schedule time as you could easily spend an hour or more there. The best part...... its FREE admission, the last time I was there a few years ago.

Beautiful and award winning architecture at the Redlin Art Museum, which contains many of the late Terry Redlin’s original oil paintings. Bought two nice Redlin scenes on stained glass at the gift shop today for my home .The landscaping on the grounds of the facility is Heavenly. Receptionist was very nice too.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. This place is not only worth a stop, it’s worth a long drive. The building is absolutely beautiful, the grounds are amazing, and the contents inside are inspiring. All that, coupled with friendly and knowledgable staff make for a fantastic experience. Did i mention it’s completely free? This is what America is all about. Someone who built himself up, made great wealth, and gave back to his community for others to enjoy. Truly a beautiful place for the family or individuals.

Review №46

Deserves 10 stars. This is a quality stop on your journey thru South Dakota, or even worth a trip just to visit by itself! Take your time and enjoy the historic story of how Terry began his legendary career in art, starting at a young age, through the accident that changed his life, and into the latter years where he funded the building of this art center with his own funds. It is an absolute monument to what makes America the greatest country in the world to live in.

We have appreciated Terry Redlins work for a long time. Mr. Redlin was a local Watertown artist. 150 of his original works are housed in this museum, which was designed by his son. It sits on several acres of parkland, ideal for outdoor weddings, photos, or other events. Some of the buildings are available to rent for this. Mr. Redlin had the museum built to house his works as a gift to the people of Watertown. Therefore, there is no admission fee.Guests are free to wander among his works without an escort, and read the descriptions that explain his inspiration for the piece. Guided tours are also available. He has done several series and my favorite is the America the Beautiful series.There is also gift shops where many of his works can be purchased. They will ship to you if you cannot take the piece with you. Weve done that twice and are very pleased with our purchases. Everything arrived in pristine condition. Ordering can also be done from his website.Elevators are available for wheelchairs.If you are from the area, you might recognize several local scenes. But even if you are not, come and enjoy this wonderful place and the slice of Americana that Terry Redlins art is.There is plenty of parking and the restrooms are lovely.

The museum homes many of Terry Redlins pieces, a theater with a video depicting his life, and 2 gift shops with prints and other memorabilia. There is a lot of information about him and his life, and his paintings are surrounded by clean, beautiful architecture. His amazing paintings show his incredible talents of painting light, perspective, and nature.

Sorry to say we drove 125 miles on Sunday to visit the center thinking it was open from12 to 4 as posted on the website and the entrance but found it closed. Would like to know why. Have visited before and really enjoyed it. Think Redlin is the greatest artist of our time.

This is by far one of the best art museums I have ever visited. It houses most of his best works as well as some of his early works that are rather crude compared to what he is known for. Also houses drawings sculptures and various other items of interest. Excellent experience all around. I will go back some day

We watched the short video explaining his life and his art. Then walked thru looking at all his art thats on display. His art is amazing. I love his use of light and how three dimensional his art is. It almost looks like you could step into his paintings. A must see if youre in the area. Free admission, so theres no excuse for not going. :)
