Ogunquit Museum of American Art (OMAA)

The Ogunquit Museum of American Art (OMAA) is a small art museum located on the coast in Ogunquit, Maine. The museum houses over 3,000 pieces in its permanent collection. It is the only museum in Maine devoted solely to American art.

The museum focuses on modern and contemporary art, and its permanent collection includes paintings, sculpture, graphic arts, photography and new media.

The first exhibition included 121 works by modern artists Marsden Hartley, John Marin, Stuart Davis, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Peggy Bacon, Walt Kuhn, Frances Lamont, Hamilton Easter Field, and William von Schlegel, and was supported with the loan of important works from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art and the Downtown Gallery.
