Bowers Museum brings cultural art and historical collections to Santa Ana, with exhibitions that connect objects to the communities and traditions behind them.

Its mission-style entrance and courtyard provide a recognizable setting on North Main Street. Permanent collections and changing exhibitions make the experience depend partly on what is currently on display.
Review the museum's exhibition and admission information before visiting, especially for ticketed special shows or a guided tour. Allow time to move between galleries rather than treating the building as a quick exterior stop. Check separately for programs aimed at families or school groups.
