Speed Art Museum

The Speed Art Museum is located in downtown Louisville off South 3rd Street near the University of Louisville. It is considered Kentucky’s oldest and largest art museum. The art museum offers permanent art exhibits, various educational programs, immersive art experiences, events and Speed Cinema screenings which typically are not included in the general admission tickets.
