Phoenix Art Museum opened in 1959. Its founding and development into the leading art museum in the American Southwestern reflects the constant commitment from the community and mirrors the growth of Phoenix from a small desert town to the sixth largest city in the United States. Now, the classically progressive look of its 203,000-square-foot building is a work of art in itself. Designed by New York architects Tod Williams/Billie Tsien & Associates in the mid-1990s and expanded by them in 2006, it integrates art and architecture with the Southwestern landscape and provides sweeping interior spaces.
Phoenix Art Museum is proud to greet visitors from all corners of the community and the world, and from all walks of life.
