I bought 3 great Japanese Block Art style T-shirts there that I love! There's quite a variety of items there, not just paintings and sculptures.

Situated on the UC Davis campus, just off Highway 80, the Minetti Shrem museum is a stylish oasis. And it's always free to enter, which I appreciate. I enjoyed the approach and easy parking, the big gong is fun and resonant, the entry way is dramatic, and the museum is welcoming, stylish, and feels good. The museum itself, as well as its artistic contents, provokes thought, just as any good art should. The museum is well worth stopping into and then wander around the campus for a while...
