Welcome to West Valley Art Museum website! Even though the Museum closed in September, 2009 and lost its building in December of that same year, the Museum is still a viable 501C3 non-profit institution, dedicated to preserving its collection of Ethnic Dress, Fine Art Prints and Arizona Art. During the coming months the Board of Trustees is meeting regularly to plan for the future while the collection is stored with the City of Peoria but not available for view at this time. Eventually, there will be venues for display and a new exhibition program put into place. The current address for the Museum is P.O. Box 1067, Sun City, AZ 85351-1067 for all memberships, donations and correspondence. An office for conducting the business of the Museum is currently at another cultural institution in Peoria with the same phone number as before; 623-972-0635. Connection to email is still at info@wvam.org. Watch for announcements regarding meetings of the membership and fund-raising events in the local media, through email and on this website.
The Memorial Bricks To all who have been concerned about what was happening with the bricks in the Café patio, we’re happy to tell you that they have been taken up from the patio and have been taken to a safe location to keep until such time as they can be re-installed in a public place to once again re-affirm memories of loved ones and contributors to the Museum.
Glendale Bead Museum Please drop by the Glendale Bead Museum to see several of West Valley Art Museum’s costumes on display. We are grateful to Kelly Norton, Director and the Bead Museum’s board for allowing WVAM this opportunity while we regroup for the future. The Bead Museum
