For 12 years, American Art Awards has decided the 25 Best Galleries and Museums in America. Among the criteria: years in business, industry reputation, online activity, location, size, exhibits, educational programs, represented artists and references from artists, clients and visitors. Each year only one gallery or museum per state in 25 states is selected.

American Art Awards: “Kiechel Fine Art is a three-floor towering showplace exhibiting the top Midwestern Contemporary artists as well as 19th & 20th century American Art. Their endless inventory of Old Master & Contemporary originals and prints make this a favorite of collectors nationwide. This is a full service gallery, placing works in some of the top private, corporate and public collections across the United States, including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The British Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Chicago Art Institute, Smithsonian Institution and Crystal Bridges. Located in the heart of historic downtown Lincoln, and currently showcasing three unique gallery experiences, the Kiechel facility itself is a work of art. The American Art Awards is proud to proclaim Kiechel Fine Art the Best Gallery or Museum in Nebraska, 2020, and one of the 25 Best Galleries and Museums in America.”
