OUR MISSION

The Mennello Museum of American Art (MMAA) strives to enrich the public through exhibitions, education, programs, and publications that celebrate the diversity of American Art.

The Mennello Museum creates educational programming that delivers access to captivating American art of all genres through permanent collections, as well as renowned curated temporary exhibitions. The MMAA brings art studies that present the permanent collection of outstanding Earl Cunningham paintings directly into classrooms through Art Trunks on The Go: Safe Place Space.

Whether through lectures given by world-renowned and established artists like Bo Bartlett and Julie Heffernan, docent guided tours for school aged groups or seniors, or Boy and Girl Scout badge fulfillments with art projects, the MMAA’s workshops and special programming are designed to make personal connections to exhibitions and exploration of artistic methods.

The MMAA endeavors to engage all individuals who come through the doors in participatory learning of the visual arts. We seek to advance their confidence in discussions around the exhibitions and inspire creativity in personal life and art making. When curating exhibitions, the MMAA realizes it is not in isolation and has a responsibility to present culturally and socially relevant topics.
