The Glenstone Museum is a contemporary art museum where the buildings and environment are as much a part of the art as the pieces themselves. I want able to do the full walk because I was pressed for time but it's very easy and jaw droppingly beautiful. It's free but very hard to get tickets. They release them months in advance and go fast. Visit.glenstone.org
