Provincetown Art Association and Museum
Founded in 1914 to collect and exhibit the works of artists with Provincetown connections, this facility has more than 4,000 works from more than 900 artists, displayed in changing exhibitions that mix up-and-comers with established 20th-century figures like Milton Avery, Philip Evergood, William Gropper, Charles Hawthorne, Robert Motherwell, Claes Oldenburg, Man Ray, John Singer Sargent, Andy Warhol, and Agnes Weinrich. A stunning contemporary wing offers lots of exhibit space. The museum store carries books of local interest, including works by or about area artists and authors, as well as posters, crafts, cards, and gift items. Workshops, lectures, studio nights, free events, and more keep things lively.
