Free Fridays at the Orange County Museum of Art

at Unknown

The Orange County Museum of Art is dedicated to enriching the lives of a diverse and changing community through modern & contemporary art.

The museum opened in 1962 as the Balboa Pavilion Gallery by thirteen visionary women. With a focus on modern and contemporary art, their efforts were well received and the museum enjoyed recognition from coast to coast. By 1968 the institution became known as the Newport Harbor Art Museum and in 1972, moved to a nearby, larger location. Interest and support continued to grow, as did its collections and exhibitions and in 1977, the museum opened its doors in the current location on San Clemente Drive. In 1997 the museum was remodeled and renamed the Orange County Museum of Art and to this day, enjoys world-wide recognition for its award-winning education programs and ground-breaking exhibitions, many of which travel nationally and internationally.

The museum's FREE FRIDAYS offers visitors complimentary entrance to the museum from 11 am until 8 pm; including special programming on Friday evenings with artist talks, exhibition-related panels, as well as CINEMA ORANGE, a partnership with the Newport Beach Film Festival to present monthly screenings and independent films.
