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 95 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Haggin Museum — September 3, 2026 – October 25, 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[158],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-juried-shows"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nJuror:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
