The mission of the Museum of International Folk Art is to foster understanding of the traditional arts to illuminate human creativity and shape a humane world. As one of the few museums in the United States dedicated to folk art from around the world, the Museum of International Folk Art expands the understanding of folk art and encourages dialogue about traditions, cultural identity, community, and aesthetics. The museum is a dynamic, multidimensional learning environment that is an integral part of community life. Our collection and programming provide important connections between past, present, and future folk art and related traditions.

Open Daily from 10AM-5PM May through October. November through April, the museum is open Tuesdays-Sundays from 10AM-5PM, closed on Mondays. The museum is closed four holidays per year: January 1st, Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving Day, and December 25th.
