About this place

A contemporary art museum in Encinitas with free entry to exhibitions and events. Families can explore changing displays with help from volunteer guides trained to discuss what visitors notice in the work.

Community events bring artists and thinkers together to discuss current topics, while teaching artists work with students to encourage close looking and critical thinking about what they see.
