Program areas at Tacoma Art Museum

Tam's exhibition and curatorial department are what makes a Museum a Museum. Their Art expertise and knowledge allows them to curate exhibitions for the Museum visitors to enjoy. They also help plan programming and reach out to the community to see how they can represent their needs in the Museum through Art.
Tam's education team interacts with the local community and inspires the youth that come through the Museum. They are able to connect with the youth during the neighborhood nights at tam, at local Tacoma festivals such as pride or in the spirit, or through tours in the Museum. They are able to create a community with their programming and presence.
Visitor services, store, and cafe employees are our front of line workers who are knowledgeable in the current events of the Museum. They are also flexible to Museum events and are able to work on any Museum programming and any Museum function. The store has merchandise and consignments from local artists while the cafe serves good food. Without our visitor services workers, the Museum would not be able to function. They are the backbone of the Museum.
