James A. Michener Art Museum, Art museum in Doylestown, United States.
The James A. Michener Art Museum occupies a former 19th-century prison building with stone walls now housing galleries, exhibition spaces, and educational facilities.
The museum opened in 1988 after local authorities transformed the former Bucks County Prison into a cultural institution named after author James A. Michener.
The museum maintains a collection of 2,700 artworks, focusing on Pennsylvania Impressionist paintings and regional artists from the Bucks County area.
The museum welcomes 135,000 visitors annually and provides guided tours, educational programs, workshops, and maintains accessibility features for visitors with disabilities.
