Catalina Island Museum

The Mission and Vision of the Catalina Island Museum is to collect, preserve, and promote the culture and history of Santa Catalina Island and to bring unique exhibitions to Catalina.  An anchor of tradition, a beacon of culture, inspiring our communities.

We at the Catalina Museum for Art & History would like to acknowledge and recognize our responsibility to the original and current caretakers of this land, water, and air: the Tongva peoples and all their ancestors and descendants, past, present, and future. Today this meeting place is home to many Indigenous peoples from all over the world, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these homelands.
