40 ANNI: 4oth Anniversary Permanent Collection Exhibit
On exhibit September 15, 2018 through January 27, 2019
In 1978 in a room above Caffè Malvina in North Beach, the Museo Italo Americano first opened its doors to the public. In the forty years since, we have built a notable Permanent Collection, thanks to the generosity of many artists, collectors, and friends of the Museo. This exhibit will highlight over forty artists and more than seventy works of art from our Permanent Collection. The Museo Italo Americano is grateful to the Fleishhacker Foundation for helping to make this exhibit possible.
