Edgemar, Mixed-use art center in Main Street, Santa Monica, US

The Edgemar complex combines renovated warehouses, an Art Deco office building, and modern structures designed by architect Frank Gehry in 1988.

Originally built in 1908 as Imperial Ice Company warehouse, the property transformed into Santa Monica Dairy Company facilities during the 1940s refrigeration era.

The Santa Monica Museum of Art operated at Edgemar from 1988 to 1996, starting with the exhibition 'Art in The Raw' before relocating to Bergamot Station.

The center spans 33,640 square feet, containing retail spaces, offices, a restaurant area, and a theater center for various commercial activities.

Each holiday season since 1995, Edgemar displays an installation created from shopping carts, designed by Anthony Schmitt as part of local celebrations.
