Art museums in STL

If in the mood for seeing some art in St. Louis during your stay, there are a number of different options available to you. On the museum front, a handful of spots are definites for any list of art in St. Louis. Unfortunately for those wanting to make a day of it, these five are relatively split up, though all are accessible, to one degree or another, by public transit. SLU, for example, is fairly close to the Metro train stops (Grand), while the Kemper is close to one of the Washington U.'s Metro stops. It's worth checking each of the museum's websites to best determine a course of transit.
