“We’ve always been big fans…we’re so appreciative and so proud of the Albrecht-Kemper. We go to museums around the world and we’re so proud of what little St. Joe has in the Albrecht-Kemper. It’s really a fantastic gallery.” – artist and AKMA member Jim Lawrence

The AKMA gallery includes colonial portraits, American landscape paintings, as well as well-renowned works showcasing Indigenous people and the American West. In addition to the permanent collection, the museum hosts 12 exhibitions per year highlighting works from regional emerging artists. The collection continues to expand and improve every year, and the AKMA is proud to spotlight regional artists who capture the American spirit.
