About Us

Ancient Egyptian antiquities collection

Welcome

The Robert and Frances Fullerton Museum of Art opened its doors to the public in the fall of 1996. Since then, it has grown to be one of the major cultural centers in the region.

In 2008, RAFFMA was granted accreditation from the American Alliance of Museums, the highest national recognition an American museum can achieve, recognizing our continuing commitment to excellence.

Since 2008, we have hosted many exhibitions from artists all over the world. We are best known for our Egyptian antiquities collection, one of the largest display of ancient Egyptian antiquities in the western United States encompassing years of Egyptian history.

Vision

RAFFMA will be a vibrant resource for the campus and community at large to stimulate curiosity and wonder. Through diligent efforts and partnerships, the museum will continue to contribute to the development of visual culture.

Mission

RAFFMA provides meaningful cultural experiences through art exhibitions and educational programs to engage and inspire local, national and international audiences. The Museum adheres to the highest standard of museum stewardship in collections, documentation, preservation, interpretation, and exhibition.
