With
over 100 museums and galleries,
the Monterey Peninsula has developed
into a mecca for the visual artist.
The Monterey Museum of Arts boasts
one of the premier photographic
and early California painting
collections in the world with
an eclectic blend of rotating
exhibitions often featuring the
finest artists that our area has
to offer.
The incredible assortment
of galleries and museums to choose
from can be an irresistible temptation
for the visitor. Everything from
painting and sculpture to glass
works and jewelry is featured
in the area shops.
And for
those interested in history
or the natural sciences there's
plenty to choose from, too. As
the original sight of the government
of California, Monterey offers
a fascinating look back at our
heritage in a diverse assortment
of historical buildings and documents.
And the "new" Monterey is in no
way better expressed than through
the world class Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Regarded as a leading institution
for research and education, the
Monterey Bay Aquarium is a moving
experience providing a spectacular
view of life in the Monterey Bay.
