Grace Hudson Museum
Grace Hudson Museum, Art museum in Ukiah, California.
Description
The Grace Hudson Museum is an art museum in Ukiah housed in a Craftsman-style building on Main Street. Its collections feature paintings, artifacts, and documents that tell the story of the region and its people.
History
The museum opened in 1986 next to the Sun House, which was built in 1911 as the residence of artist Grace Hudson and her husband John. The residence later became an important part of how the museum tells the story of the region.
Culture
The museum displays portraits of Pomo Native Americans painted by Grace Hudson alongside regional artworks and objects from Pomo culture. These collections offer visitors a view into how an artist documented the people who lived in the area.
Practical
It is best to plan a visit on a weekday, as the museum operates several days each week. It is good to check current hours ahead of time and allow enough time to see both the museum and the residence.
