Day of the Dead -- Dia de los Muertos: Museums

"The J. Paul Getty Museum seeks to inspire curiosity about, and enjoyment and understanding of, the visual arts by collecting, conserving, exhibiting and interpreting works of art of outstanding quality and historical importance."

"The National Museum of Mexican Art promotes the art and culture of Mexico and its people around the world."

MOLAA’s mission is to educate the public about modern and contemporary Latin American art and culture.

The Museum houses more than 12,000 objects, roughly 1,000 of which are on view in the galleries and gardens. Two temporary exhibition spaces feature rotating installations of artworks not on permanent display.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded on April 13, 1870, "to be located in the City of New York, for the purpose of establishing and maintaining in said city a Museum and library of art."

The museum is the home to one of the largest and most inclusive collections of American art in the world.
