The Riverside Art Museum (RAM), housed in a 1929 building designed by architect Julia Morgan, shows a mix of solo, group, and permanent collection exhibits featuring traditional and contemporary/modern art in four galleries and a mezzanine.
RAM stewards a permanent collection of approximately 1,500 objects. The collection’s greatest strengths are print works (lithographs, serigraphs, intaglio, monotype, relief, photographs, and posters), mixed media works, and paintings and watercolors of California landscapes.
Some notable artists in the RAM collection include: Karl Benjamin, Rex Brandt, Kathe Kollwitz, Millard Sheets, Toulouse Lautrec, Marc Chagall, Alberto Giacometti, Shepard Fairey, and Sister Corita Kent.
