Monterey Museum of Art
The Monterey Museum of Art has a large focus on California art and artists. There are two separate locations which comprise the Museum of Art. The Pacific Street location, simply called the Monterey Museum of Art - Pacific Street, is a rather austere looking building featuring eight galleries. Here you will find early American and California collections, including paintings, photography and contemporary art.

There are works by such famous names as Ansel Adams, Armin Hansen, William Ritschel, and Edward Weston to name just a few.
The second location, Monterey Museum of Art - La Mirada, is definitely a contrast to the Pacific location. Housed in a beautiful old mansion, the museum is surrounded by lush grounds and a lovely rose garden. This site displays changing exhibitions so check the museum calendar to see what is currently on display. The admission cost is basically two for the price of one, with one admission giving access to both locations.
