Advancing understanding and appreciation of the border through the arts
The Museum’s Frontera Forward initiative celebrates the diverse voices of our region through free exhibitions, artist-led workshops, curator and docen-led tours, and robust offsite art activity offerings across El Paso. See a full list of programs here.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, these programs remain free and accessible to all, ensuring art continues to connect and inspire in the Borderland.
Mission
The mission of EPMA is to collect, preserve, interpret, and exhibit works of art that support and illuminate the Museum’s permanent collection of American, European, and Mexican art. The Museum celebrates the region’s diverse cultures through exhibitions, acquisitions, and educational programs and is dedicated to scholarship while providing a stimulating, welcoming, and inspiring environment for all.
Our Legacy
Founded in 1959 with the Samuel Kress Foundation’s gift of European masterpieces, EPMA has grown to house over 7,000 works and welcome more than 75,000 visitors annually. As the only accredited art museum within 200 miles, EPMA remains a vital cultural and educational resource for West Texas, New Mexico, and Northern Mexico.
