The San Jose Museum of Art is dedicated to fostering an awareness, appreciation, and understanding of twentieth- and twenty-first-century art in the diverse audiences of the Bay Area. The Museum achieves its mission through exhibitions, education programs, collections, publications, and outreach programs, all of which are designed to serve, engage and enrich the individual and the community.
