Art That Inspires Change

Hammer Museum

Founded by Dr. Armand Hammer and opened in 1990, the Hammer Museum at UCLA supports art and artists that challenge visitors of all ages to see the world in a new light and experience the unexpected. The Hammer Museum is one of three public arts institutions of the UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture, where it offers exhibitions, lectures, symposia, film series, readings, and musical performances that foster meaningful interaction with art. Visitors have the opportunity to experience the Grunwald Center Collection — one of America's finest collections of works on paper — the Franklin D. Murphy Sculpture Garden, and a growing collection of international contemporary art with a focus on Los Angeles-based artists. In its mission to celebrate the art that questions and inspires, the Hammer offers free admission to all.
