Salvador Dalí Museum, arts & culture in Downtown Waterfront, St. Petersburg

The Dalí holds over 2,400 works including seven of the artist's monumental 'masterworks,' housed in a waterfront building whose free-form geodesic glass 'Enigma' bubbles out of a concrete shell. Don't miss the helical staircase, the wishing tree in the Avant-garden, and the Dalí Alive immersive experiences that rotate alongside major special exhibitions. Free docent tours run daily and genuinely change how you read the paintings.
