About The Peninsula Museum of Art
The Peninsula Art Museum occupies half of the main floor of the Twin Pines Art Center. The other main-floor occupants are the Belmont Arts Council Gallery and the office of the Peninsula Arts Council. Artists rent the upstairs rooms for their working studios.
PAM's "starter home" provides a wonderful environment for art, located as it is in Belmont's lovely Twin Pines Park in the middle of the San Francisco Peninsula. The Museum includes a formal exhibition gallery, a Collections room, and a reference library.
As the Museum grows and develops, additional gallery space and art education facilities will be needed. Since PAM's current home in the historic Manor House cannot be modified to meet these needs, the Museum has begun a site search and Building Fund.
The
PMA Governing Board celebrated receipt of a million dollar donation
from Charles Homer at the December Board meeting. Toasting Mr. Homer
are (from left) Arabella Decker, Mr. Homer, Dr. Christine Bennett,
Board President Ruth Waters, and Jerry Emanuel.
The Building Fund was launched Dec. 2, 2005,
with the donation of $1,000,000 (yes, One Million Dollars!) by Charles Homer
of San Mateo.
