About the Exhibition:
The 62nd Stockton Art League juried exhibition, sponsored by the Stockton Art League and supported by the California Arts Council, returns to the prestigious Haggin Museum. Originally established in 1951 to recognize, promote, and reward excellence in Northern California art, this exhibition has since grown into a national juried competition showcasing 2D and 3D artworks. The exhibition serves as a significant fundraiser for the Stockton Art League, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization committed to providing art education and fostering visual arts development for all ages in Stockton and San Joaquin County.
About the Museum:
The Haggin Museum, an art and history Museum, has been referred to by Sunset Magazine as one of the undersung gems of California. It contains more than 34,000 square feet of exhibit space, twice as large as it was on opening day in 1931. Its art collection features works by such noted 19th-century painters as Albert Bierstadt, Rosa Bonheur, and William-Adolphe Bouguereau, J.C. Leyendecker, as well as many other American and European artists. In 2017, the Haggin underwent a multimillion-dollar renovation including new wall and floor treatments, and new LED lighting in the gallery. The impressive brick building has stood in the center of Stockton’s lush Victory Park for 89 years, but it’s what’s on the inside that makes it Worth Visiting.
