Springfield Museum of Art

The mission of Springfield Museum of Art is to collect, exhibit, and preserve works of art for the benefit of all individuals, while encouraging the education and participation in, and the enjoyment and appreciation of the arts.

In 1946, a group of concerned artists and citizens, feeling that Springfield needed a showcase for the visual arts, formed the Springfield Art Association.  In 1989, the organization became Springfield Museum of Art, acknowledging the increased importance placed on art exhibitions and the permanent collection.

The Museum was placed into the Smithsonian Affiliates program in 2012, and is currently the only art museum in Ohio with that distinction.
