The Newark Museum of Art, Art museum in Newark, United States
The Newark Museum of Art exhibits collections of American art, decorative arts, contemporary works, and artifacts from Asia, Africa, and ancient civilizations across multiple galleries.
Founded in 1909 by librarian John Cotton Dana, the institution began with a collection of Japanese prints and porcelain obtained from a local pharmacist.
The museum maintains galleries dedicated to American artists including Thomas Cole, Edward Hopper, Mary Cassatt, and Georgia O'Keeffe, representing different periods and movements.

In 1910, this museum organized the first exhibition of Tibetan art in the world, leading to substantial donations that formed its permanent collection.
