Triton Museum of Art

Santa Clara (Califórnia) / Estados Unidos

The Triton Museum of Art is a contemporary art museum located in Santa Clara, California. The museum was founded in 1965 in San Jose, California, by rancher, lawyer and art patron W. Robert Morgan and his wife June. It is the oldest non-university museum in Santa Clara County. Less than two years after its opening, the Triton Museum moved to its current location in Santa Clara, California. Exhibitions and programs were held in four pavilions surrounded by a seven-acre park. Due to the tremendous economic and population growth of the Santa Clara Valley during the 1970s, a new facility was built to serve the changing needs of the community. Construction for the current facility was completed in October, 1987. The 22,000 square-foot space features high ceilings, pyramidal skylights and dramatic lighting. The spacious design of the building was created for versatile exhibition presentation as well as an aesthetically pleasing experience for museum visitors. For more than 50 years, the Triton Museum of Art has been a destination for the community, providing a venue where local artists exhibit their work alongside regional and national artists, and where students of all ages learn about art and the creative process. Located across the street from the Santa Clara Civic Center, the Triton Museum of Art collects and exhibits contemporary and historical works with an emphasis on artists of the Greater Bay Area. Over 50,000 people attend the museum on-site annually, through its exhibitions, education and community programs, and over 90,000 people view the museum's satellite gallery and exhibitions annually. The museum is a nonprofit organization that is supported by contributions from its members and the wider community at large. Admission to exhibitions and many of our events is free; free parking. The Triton Museum of Art Serves as a repository for visual art objects and ensures their preservation Presents exhibitions that illustrate and celebrate a commitment to cultural and gender inclusiveness Offers a learning environment in which curiosity, experimentation and spirited dialogue are encouraged Has two beautiful indoor facilities and a 7-acre sculptural garden that are available for private and corporate facility rentals.
