Peninsula Museum of Art

The Peninsula Museum of Art (PMA) was an art museum located in Burlingame, California.

The 18,000-square-foot complex opened in 2013, and housed both the museum and the Peninsula Art Institute. Together, the museum and institute comprised five gallery spaces, a library, a classroom, a store and 30 working artists’ studios.[1][2][3]

Ruth Waters was the museum's Founder, Chair and Executive Director.[2] Ruth Waters was a working sculptor not an art collector, as the museum was founded by artists.[4]

In 2020, the Burlingame location was permanently closed.[5]
