## About

Located across from Santa Clara City Hall, the Triton Museum of Art has served as a welcoming beacon of regional art and cultural education for over five decades. Thanksgiving weekend is an ideal time for families to explore the museum's rotating exhibitions of contemporary California artists and permanent collections of Native American and historic Pacific works. Outside, the 7-acre sculpture garden offers a delightful walking experience, featuring large-scale modern bronze and steel sculptures set amidst redwood trees, flowering crepe myrtles, and manicured lawns. Children can pick up family discovery cards at the admissions desk that turn viewing artwork into an interactive game of finding shapes, textures, and autumn colors, making art accessible and fun for all ages.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Fully accessible single-story indoor galleries and paved garden pathways allow effortless navigation with strollers and wheelchairs.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Clean public restrooms with baby-changing tables are available in the main pavilion, and shady outdoor garden benches offer quiet rest spots.
• Age Suitability: Welcomes all generations; free admission makes it a stress-free cultural destination for families with toddlers, young kids, and grandparents.
• Sensory Tips: Exceptionally calm, low-noise environment with soft gallery lighting; unhurried outdoor sculpture grounds provide room for active kids to move freely.
