The Cape Cod Museum of Art was founded in 1981 with the intent to preserve the artwork related to Cape Cod, either by subject matter or the artist. Today, the Museum of Art is a year-round facility with several climate controlled galleries, a museum shop, storage for the permanent collection, and an adjacent education center that offers workshops and classes. Works from the permanent collection are displayed year round on a rotating basis, and often complement the temporary exhibits. Influential Cape Cod artists and teachers featured in the collection include Henry Hensche, Hans Hofmann and Charles Hawthorne. The latter founded the Cape School of Art in 1899.
