Review: The Columbus Museum of Art amazed me with their multitude of great exhibits, each presented in its own unique way. I have worked at several art museums, and this is the most engaging and progressive museum I've been to. I loved their enormous variety of types of art and eras, juxtaposed together in eye-opening ways. You might find an exhibit of black light art right around the corner from Dutch masters, for example.
