One of Southern California's finest museums and Orange County's largest, the Bowers Museum of Cultural Art is a nationally celebrated institution of art and culture dedicated to the preservation, study and exhibition of fine arts from around the world. It is our guiding philosophy that learning about peoples through their arts will lead us to a greater understanding of ourselves and a fuller appreciation of the marvelous diversity of the world in which we live. The Museum's location, close to four major freeways and four miles south of Disneyland, makes the Bowers an ideal destination for visitors to Southern California.

The Bowers Museum offers additional educational programming, such as hands-on art classes and activities, at our Kidseum Art Lab in conjunction with museum tours. Museum tours, art classes and activity tours are all one hour program, and meet Visual Arts Framework Standards.
