Montclair Art Museum

The Montclair Art Museum is located in Montclair in Essex County, New Jersey and holds a collection of over 12,000 objects showcasing American and Native North American art. Through its public programs, art classes, and exhibitions, MAM strives to create experiences that inspire, challenge, and foster community to shape our shared future.

Montclair Art Museum has been privately funded since it opened in 1914 as the first museum in New Jersey that granted access to the public and the first dedicated solely to art. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 14, 1986, for its significance in art and architecture. It was listed in the Montclair Artists Colony section of the Historic Resources of Montclair Multiple Property Submission.
