Springfield Museums, Art museum in Springfield, United States
Springfield Museums is a complex housing an art museum that displays permanent collections of American and European paintings, sculptures, and decorative objects across multiple galleries. The site functions as a five-museum cultural center located in downtown Springfield.
The art collection was established in 1857 and grew from a small gallery into a major component of a cultural center. This expansion reflects the region's increasing commitment to supporting the arts over time.
The museum presents rotating exhibitions featuring contemporary artists, with dedicated spaces showing works from local, national, and international creators throughout the year. This approach ensures that visitors experience a constantly changing selection of artistic voices and perspectives.
The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday, with admission tickets providing access to all five museums in the complex. Plan adequate time to explore the various galleries and rotating exhibitions at your own pace.
The North Wing expansion provides additional exhibition spaces designed for new educational programs and community events. These newer areas enable more interactive and hands-on approaches to sharing art with visitors.
