Art & Culture

As the arts and culture capital of the Midwest, Saint Paul boasts more than 52,000 theater seats, three world-class museums, legendary historic sites, vibrant arts, entertainment community, gorgeous parks, and a solid music scene. Each year, 7 million visitors come to see world-renowned groups like the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and national treasures like Penumbra Theater Company. Many artists reside in Saint Paul, and the city supports this community by helping them promote, create, and produce the best artwork today. With such talent and passion in one city, no wonder we are the arts & cultural capital of Minnesota.

The museum’s current location on the banks of the Mississippi River in Saint Paul offers 370,000 square feet of space. It includes a 10,000-square-foot temporary exhibit gallery, five permanent galleries, 10 acres of outdoor exhibits, and an Imax Convertible Dome Omnitheater.
