Welcome to The Mennello Museum of American Art. Nearby downtown Orlando, the Museum offers a diverse collection of paintings and sculptures, as well as a beautiful environment to engulf the senses. At the heart of the Museum's showcase is an outstanding permanent collection of paintings by Earl Cunningham (1893-1977). Enriching the Central Florida community through special exhibitions, publications, and programs that celebrate outstanding traditional and contemporary American artists has been an integral part of the Museum's mission since its opening November 22, 1998. The Museum's Cunningham collection was generously donated by collectors Marilyn and Michael Mennello of Winter Park, Florida and is currently owned by the City of Orlando. When visiting, you may be welcomed by Red and Fuzz (click here to find out more about the duo), the museum's resident greeting felines. Both have found their way to hearts of patrons and staff alike.

NOW SHOWING

FLA.ART Art by Florida artists from the Permanent & Private Collections
On view May 13 – September 25, 2011

On May 13th, The Mennello Museum of American Art will open the exhibit, "Florida Art" which celebrates local artists who were seminal to the Central Florida art scene.

During the next eight months, visitors to the museum will have an opportunity to view a strong and diverse collection of art. 'FLA.ART' will feature works from the collections of The Mennello Museum of American Art, The City of Orlando and several public and private collections.

The exhibit will be altered over the upcoming eight months, allowing the museum to show the evolution and changing face of Florida art as represented by the artists included in the collections. As a result the exhibit will remain fresh and exciting.

Curator Frank Holt has chosen to borrow works from several sources, giving artists representation in the exhibit by multiple works. This will allow the museum visitors to more fully appreciate the diversity and maturity of those artists included in the exhibit.

Featured Artists will include: Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist, John Chamberlain, Nancy Jay, Cicero Greathouse, Que Throm, Robert Rivers, Cheryl Bogdanowitsch, Barbara Sorensen, Bob Eginton, Barbara Tiffany, Georgina Holt, Bob Kopec, Victor Bokas, John & Lynn Whipple, Randy & Cheryl Smith, Michael Galletta, Henry Sinn, Anita Wooten, Steve & Gretchen Lotz, Duncan McClellan, Purvis Young, Jose Bedia, Lynn Davison, Anna Tomczak and Margaret Tolbert and others.
