“To create a stimulating and enjoyable educational visual arts experience for the South Florida community exhibiting diverse Florida, national and international artists." |
Since its opening in early 1997, the Coral Springs Museum of Art has has focused on displaying innovative and ethnically diverse Florida artists and providing eclectic and challenging classes for both children and adults. In addition, we've hosted three “blockbuster” exhibitions with well-known artists such as Alexandra Nichita, Romero Britto, Wolf Kahn, Duane Hansen, Clyde Butcher, Jose Bedia, Royo, Yuroz, and Dale Chihuly. We have also displayed art on loan from other area museums, such as the Boca Raton Museum of Art, the Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art and the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens.
The Museum has hosted over 520,000 visitors and students since opening. We have exhibited the work of more than 200 artists in our galleries and the work of approximately 7,800 artists in our lobby. The annual Great Art Affair has raised $400,000 through the hard work of the Friends of the Museum. 125 volunteers supplement our staff of a full-time executive director, three full-time and one part-time personnel.
Classes in drawing, collage, painting and mixed media for adults and children are offered in our 13,500 square foot space. |
