American Visionary Art Museum
Maryland
A national museum devoted entirely to self-taught 'outsider' artists -- whirligigs, a giant whirligig sculpture garden, and a mirrored mosaic facade that makes it the single quirkiest museum stop in the state.
Why Roamward picked it
Textbook Roamward hidden-gem-forward pick -- federally designated national museum for visionary art that most road-trippers have never heard of, with a precise Federal Hill address.
