SAN JOSE: Art Museum Day 2011

 

INTERNATIONAL MUSEUM DAY

May 18, 2011 | 11 AM – 5 PM

San Jose Museum of Art

Free Museum Admission

 

The San Jose Museum of Art is proud to celebrate International Museum Day and the Association of Art Museum Directors’ (AAMD) Art Museum Day. The theme of Art Museum Day is “museum and memory.” The Museum will offer free admission. Visit the Museum Store and receive a free postcard of your choice, and stop by Café Too for a free coffee with any purchase.

Art Museum Day emphasizes the lasting impact art museums have on their communities, highlights the value of the visual arts in society, and provides new opportunities for audiences to participate in the wide-ranging programs that art museums offer. In 2010, the San Jose Museum of Art, along with ninety other AAMD member museums across North America, participated in International Museum Day.

For a comprehensive list of participating art museums, visit the AAMD’s website.
