The Napa Valley Museum is a nonprofit 501c3 organization dedicated to enriching the cultural fabric of our community through exhibitions, collections, educational programs and creative activities that promote knowledge and understanding of art, nature and history. Napa Valley Museum is a small town museum making a big impact. We create utterly original exhibitions to delight our visitors, both local and on tour, while showcasing the art, history and culture of the region. For the most part we earn our way. We don’t depend on federal funding or major state government support.

In 2025, fifty-one years after the Museum was founded in St Helena, and twenty-five years after the Museum built the current facility on the Veterans Home property in Yountville, the Museum expanded to a new flagship location: The Napa Valley Museum of Art & Culture (“The MAC”) just south of St Helena on the former site of Dean & Deluca, across Highway 29 from the popular V Sattui Winery, and adjacent to Under-Study, the new culinary marketplace and counter-service café by the Michelin-starred team from PRESS Restaurant. Sharing space with The MAC, Under-Study’s large shared glass windows and glass-walled teaching kitchen will allow the two spaces to fully integrate the visual and culinary arts. Under-Study opens in late spring 2025.

Located in scenic Napa Valley, di Rosa Center for Contemporary Art engages its community in the connective power of art and nature through its permanent collection of Northern California art, contemporary exhibitions, and thought-provoking educational programs that inspire creativity and curiosity.
