Founded in 1941 in La Jolla as The Art Center in La Jolla, a community art center, through the 1950s and 1960s the organization operated as the La Jolla Art Museum. The museum was originally the 1915 residence of philanthropist Ellen Browning, and was designed by the noted architect Irwin Gill.

Overall I think that this museum offers a lot of great opportunities to observe the different modern styles of art. From kids, to adults can enjoy these spectacular art that portrays modern personalities. Just researching the museum helped me learn a lot about the artist and architecture of it. The art and view from the museum is breathtaking, there’s no reason not to go. http://www.mcasd.org/
