| In 1978, a group of Fresno civic leaders began to explore the possibility of creating a regional museum for the San Joaquin Valley. From 1981-1985, these members of the community raised more than $5.5 million to open the Met in the historic downtown site of the Fresno Bee building. The Museum opened its doors to the community on April 4, 1984. Since that time, the Museum has educated, enriched and entertained more than 2 million people with its programs in art, history and science. Striking a fine balance between its signature exhibitions and traveling exhibitions, the Met serves an extremely diverse family audience. Recent large traveling exhibitions include: A T. rex Named SUE, Masterworks from the Albertina, Georgia O'Keeffe: Visions of the Sublime, Variations on a Theme: American Prints from Pop Art to Minimalism -- A Selection from the Anderson Graphic Arts Collection and Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body. |
