Visit The Santa Paula Art Museum!

The Santa Paula Art Museum, Jeanette Cole Art Center was established as a not-for-profit organization with a mission to preserve and share Santa Paula’s artistic heritage including the famous Santa Paula Art Collection; and to educate and engage the community through collection, exhibition, interpretation, programming and outreach. The Museum is, in part, the repository and exhibition hall for the Santa Paula Art Collection. The valuable assemblage represents the accumulation of award winning entries in the Santa Paula Art Show which began in 1937. Located in the handsomely restored Limoneira Building in historic downtown Santa Paula, the Santa Paula Art Museum also features rotating exhibitions of regional art, educational programs, artist demonstrations, a gift shop, and more.
