 | | With a history dating back to 1888, the Museum's primary strengths are in 19th- and 20th-century American and European art, contemporary art, American decorative arts, Old Master works, and folk and self-taught art. |
 | | The Milwaukee Art Museum had its origin in two institutions, the Layton Art Gallery, established in 1888, and the Milwaukee Art Institute, founded in the early 1900s. |
 | | These two institutions joined forces in 1957 to form the private, non-profit Milwaukee Art Center (now the Milwaukee Art Museum), and moved to its current location in downtown Milwaukee, along the shore of Lake Michigan, at 750 North Lincoln Memorial Drive, Milwaukee, WI, 53202. |
