The Haggin Museum, an art and history museum, has been referred to by Sunset magazine as “one of the undersung gems of California.” Its art collection features works by such noted 19th-century painters as Albert Bierstadt, Rosa Bonheur, and William-Adolphe Bouguereau, J.C. Leyendecker, as well as many other American and European artists. The Haggin Museum features exhibits on local and regional history, hosts traveling history and art exhibits, and invites the public to special events including late night Thursday events every 1st and 3rd Thursday with wine and food as well as hands-on activities for children ages 5-12 every 2nd Saturday of the month.
Visitors seeking a more in-depth exploration of their health can utilize one of Haggin’s Wellness Tours. These self-guided tours are designed to facilitate viewing the museum’s art & history collection through the lens of emotions one may be experiencing, or striving for, during their visit. Each stop along the tour prompts the visitor to dig deeper and reflect upon the art or artifact and themselves.

The native American collection is impressive. There is a great display of WWl and WWII posters. Very interesting and informative. Also a Picasso loan from Bank of America. La Tauromaquia is a series of 26 aquatic etchings. There is a renovation so you don't have access to the main 3rd floor gallery but they offer a $5.00 admission during the renovation. Visited March 17, 2022 and enjoyed the Children's exhibit... From kindergarten to highschool, so much color and talent Enjoy the museum store.

I joined a senior group as a caregiver on my little adventure. If you enjoy art and displays of local vintage artifacts this museum holds some information you might find interesting enough to check out. From agriculture, to Stocktons harbor along with a Native American exhibit. They even have a gift shop toward the end if your looking for a souvenir or memory to take home with you. Elevators for the disabled and sturdy stairs for others willing to take that extra step. Restrooms inside as well as out in the park surrounding the area. Pop up shops sometimes selling snacks and refreshments. A small but fascinating place to unwind letting your mind explore the creativity and love of passionate people.

This is a world-class museum that is oddly located in Stockton California. They have an amazing collection of Leyendecker paintings. Some other fantastic artwork as well. I rank this art museum well above San Diego art museum. The staff is very friendly. The only negative would be that all of the on-site parking is reserved permit only. All of the visitor parking is on the street, almost as though they don’t expect people to visit. However it is well worth the walk once inside.

Amazing art work here. Can easily spend half a day here if you appreciate fine art and history.

Exhibits are wonderful. Staff, excellent. It is clean and friendly. We are long time visitors and it always holds our interests with the diversity. Stockton can be proud of this musem. My only complaint is lack of handicapped parking. There was one spot in the staff parking area. But also many signs that read Staff only. The signage was confusing. We went ahead and parked in the marked space and then when we buzzed for entry and a staff member came to open the door, we confirmed it was ok for us to park there. It is only because we are familiar with this museum that we knew to try that area for parking. Without it, I would have been unable to be there to enjoy the exhibits. Please fix this glitch and make sure you are compliant with the law in this regard..

We went to see my granddaughters acrylic painting but there were so many interesting artifacts that we stayed until they were about to close. We will go back again and again.
Dion Simmons
This is a must visit if you want to see the history of Stockton. From paintings 🖼 to vintage photographs 📸 to Native Americans history. Super cheap and it will take a good amount of time to see all three levels. Check it out

Julie Jones
VERY Nice local museum. Excellent exhibits of both local and national fame. Wonderful Hudson River School landscapes of California. I particularly liked the Saturday Evening Post covers and the Leyendecker illustrations. Quite the treat! Highly recommended. Oh, visit the museum store too!
Gary Brower
This is one of my favorite parks, not only can you see the wildlife, flowers, and ponds, they have an amazing 😀 play are for the children and of course the museum! Also this park is a bit more safe with all the traffic than some of the other secluded parks in Stockton. We all need to stick together and help others in the time of need as well... even if thats just picking up your phone and dialing 911, every life matters! Please remember that. Stay strong we will get through all obstacles if we all work together as one!
