The largest art museum in the American Southwest, with a permanent collection spanning Asian art, Latin American works, Spanish masters, and an extensive Western American gallery. The fashion design collection is unexpectedly good — one of the strongest in the country. Touring exhibitions rotate regularly and tend to be well-curated.
The Artlink program hosts a free community night on First Fridays, when the museum stays open late and the neighbourhood around it fills up. Worth timing a visit around that.
