The Top 5 Art Museums in Anaheim
In Orange County we are thankful to have dozens of galleries and museums to enrich the cultural landscape. Sculpture, paintings, and multimedia installations are on display and our lives are richer because of them. With so many art museums in southern California, it’s hard to figure out where to begin. Here is a curated list of the best art museums to get you started.
The Center Gallery
Southern California has hundreds of local artists, and The Center Gallery is the top spot to see their work. Located smack dab in the center of Anaheim’s art district, it is a magnet for art lovers in the area. Different artists display their work for 4-6 weeks in rotation, giving each a turn to show their best work. This is the best art museum to discover new local talent.
Orange County Center For Contemporary Art
This is one of the best art museums in southern California to experience art with a message. Each exhibition focuses on social commentary and change. Juried exhibitions are critiqued and discussed regarding the various issues and causes the work examines.
Magoski Art Colony
In nearby Fullerton, the Magoski Art Colony opens its doors to the public on the first Friday of every month during the Fullerton art walk. This is a collection of smaller galleries located next to each other so you will experience new local talent and artisans in one central location. Get your art on every first Friday of the month!
Grand Central Arts Center
The Grand Central Arts Center is a huge creative hub formed in a partnership between Cal State Fullerton and the nearby City of Santa Ana. The center brings together a variety of mediums including digital media, sound installations and the more traditional paintings and sculpture. They curate several exhibitions per year that provoke discussion on issues relevant to our culture.
Muzeo
On Anaheim Boulevard you will find Muzeo, one of the best museums in southern California. It is a 25,000 square foot facility that hosts both national and international work in it’s stunningly designed building. They feature contemporary work that is changed out every 3 to 4 months. It is also home to the Carnegie Library which has existed for over a century.
