INTERNATIONAL CIVIL RIGHTS CENTER & MUSEUM REVIEWS
For Black History Month, the Delta Zeta Sigma Chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc. visited the International Civil Rights Center & Museum with our youth auxiliary group, The Sigma Beta Club. For a few young men, this was their first trip from the Durham area. I appreciate the amount of information and stories that Robin Easter provided on our tour. Although I’m an Aggie alum, it is always an amazing experience to visit the museum and see the new exhibits and artifacts that the museum has collected. Also, they have some amazing books in the museum store. Again, special thank you to Robin Easter and all of the museum staff. I also appreciate you taking a selfie with me!!!!
This museum is truly a hidden gem of Greensboro! It is obvious that the passionate and knowledgeable staff truly care about the continued expansion of civil rights in the United States and abroad. Thank you Angela for a fantastic and fact-filled afternoon!
Powerful, heavy, educational tour today through the International Civil Rights Museum. Our guide Jeanne Dulin was extremely knowledgeable, and what a beautiful voice. Thank you! Everyone should visit this important landmark.

GREENSBORO HISTORY MUSEUM REVIEWS
I was pleasantly surprised that there was no admission fee. The facility was very clean and organized. The displays were varied and met my interest. The interactive room was fun! I like the notifications of different events that were coming up. I went to a book signing a few nights later.
What a gem! Such a cool place to learn some local history. The place is well kept and contains some really amazing artifacts. I had my kids with me so I didn’t get to take my time to go through it. Thoroughly enjoyed my time spent here and I can’t wait to come back to see the things I missed
What a great way to learn more about local history! A must-visit for visitors to the area (and for locals, too!).

MIRIAM P. BRENNER CHILDREN'S MUSEUM REVIEWS
I am beyond happy with this place and it's staff!!! Myself and my 4 kids found ourselves in the area today and I had planned to take them to the park but they saw the amazing jungle gym outside and wanted to go to this museum. Funds are low for us right now so I was hoping they were a member of the discount program for families. Unfortunately they weren't and we turned to leave as I couldn't afford the normal rate. A man followed us outside and very kindly asked us to come back in and enjoy the museum on him today. I was honestly very shocked and not sure how to respond but my kids were thrilled! We thanked Mr. Joe and had an absolutely amazing day playing! Thank you Joe for such kindness!
This place is amazing!! We stopped here on our way from Raleigh to Charlotte for our kids and they LOVED it. It’s half price on Friday nights and not busy at all. It’s super clean and well maintained. Our kids loved everything and there are vending machines and a snack area for parents that take credit cards. Definitely will be back.
Really amazing children’s museum. Charlotte may have a lot but can’t compete with this science museum. My kids loved the water center and different vehicles. Definitely will bring them back.
