About Me: The Fayetteville Museum of Art was founded in 1971. Originally housed in downtown Fayetteville's historic Market House, the Museum moved in 1978 to its present facility that was the first building in the State of North Carolina designed and built as an Art Museum. In addition to the modern facility that includes two (2) galleries, classrooms, an Art Reference Library, and a Museum Store, the Museum's 5.8 acre grounds and pond give the Fayetteville community a place to gather for relaxation. The park-like setting is an oasis in the midst of a heavily trafficked area; it is also utilized for large scale sculpture displays, art festivals and free premiere parties.

The galleries and Museum Store are open Monday through Friday from 10 am - 5pm; Saturdays and Sundays from 1 - 5pm.

We'd like to meet all those excited about the growing arts community in Fayetteville...
Because we are too! This is why we are very excited about our Capital Campaign to open a new museum in the coming years. Check out our pictures in the future of the museum album-- you'll get excited too! Also, please visit www.fayettevillemuseumart.org for more detailed information.
We could always use a hand. If you are interested in volunteering for any of our events, please contact the museum at 485-5121 where we will collect your information and let you know about upcoming events you can assist with!
