Galleries

Selections from our permanent collection - numbering more than 18,000 works - are on display throughout the second floor galleries on a rotating basis. The JSMA also displays exhibitions of loaned artworks in our changing exhibitions galleries. In support of its teaching mission, the JSMA collects exemplary works of art from around the world, from diverse cultures and periods and in all media. Access to works not on view is possible by appointment. The museum has approximately 10,000 objects searchable online (explore our online collections).
