Wonderful Museum: The is a wonderful Museum. It is done well. The Steinbeck section is very interesting and pays homage to one of the top Author's of our time. The other section is about agriculture. It is an interactive adventure through the Salinas Valley and agriculture in general. The staff and volunteers were very courteous and helpful. They even gave me directions back to my hotel. Thank you Steinbeck Center! A must see for anyone visting the Monterey area.
Literature Lovers Dream: This is a great museum. It brings to life the personal history of John Steinbeck as well as the stories that he crafted. Another wing houses an exhibit about the agricultural history of Steinbeck's Salinas Valley. Peronally, I go for the temporary exhibits. The museum does a decent job of bringing in new and interesting shows. Recently a collection of rock posters from the "summer of love" era.
