Built on the property that once housed the old Bucks County Jail, the James A. Michener Art Museum’s history is a part of a large and lasting legacy that spans over 130 years and is deep-rooted in the Doylestown community. With its ties to the notorious jail and its metamorphosis into what is now Bucks County’s premier cultural institution and America’s hub for Pennsylvania Impressionism, the Michener represents the transformative power art has on individuals and communities alike. 

For three decades, the Michener has stood as a pillar in the arts community locally, regionally, and nationally, attracting more than 100,000 guests each year and hosting critically-acclaimed exhibitions. Committed to preserving, interpreting, and exhibiting the art and cultural heritage of the “Genius Belt” known as Bucks County, the Michener celebrates its 30th anniversary with a continued promise to inspire creativity, to foster a welcoming environment for the curious of all ages, and to deliver high-quality art and programming to the Doylestown community and beyond.
