Visiting the Beach Museum of Art is like going on a vacation without leaving home. The building itself is beautiful and peaceful and by viewing the extensive collection of art, one is able to visit many other cultures as well as gain new insights into our own. The viewer will be able to see themselves strolling through landscapes around the world. The art will stimulate conversation and provide wonderful memories. Book your vacation here soon. Join Friends of the Beach Museum of Art.
