Phoenix Art Museum
With the grand opening of its recent $50 million expansion, Phoenix Art Museum has re-invented the museum experience, with activities and pleasures for all the senses. One of the nation's leading art museums, it is a popular Valley oasis with unique and stunning exhibitions of the world's best art, casual and fun events and activities, Movies at the Museum, Music at the Museum, video and light installations, an MP3 audioguide to the art, great shopping and dining, a one-acre sculpture garden and many comfortable architectural niches where one can just relax and rejuvenate. Phoenix Art Museum truly means "cool art, in a cool place."
Imagine spending an afternoon with Monet, Picasso, Frida Kahlo and Georgia O'Keeffe, then shopping in The Museum Store for that perfect gift, and topping it off with lunch or a pastry in Art Museum Café. There's fun for the whole family in the interactive PhxArtKids Gallery, and imaginations run wild in the historic interiors of the Thorne miniature rooms. With a collection of over 17,000 works of American, Asian, European, Latin American, modern and contemporary, and Western American art, there's something for every taste at Phoenix Art Museum.
