Muzeo in Anaheim is located
in downtown Anaheim. Formally the Anaheim museum and now
expanded with a new modern building. The 25,000 square foot
MUZEO complex includes Anaheim’s original Carnegie
Library (built in 1908). The new exhibition building has
over 5,000 square feet of main gallery plus a small theatre
and a community reading room.
Muzeo features a unique variety of changing exhibitions,
special events, lectures, classes and weekend festivals.
The city of Anaheim is building a new downtown with new
shopping, offices and housing. The Muzeo arts buildings
are one of the center points of the redeployment. There
is plenty of parking and near-by are coffee shops and restaurants.
Anaheim spent nearly a million dollars to build the Muzeo,
including furniture and improvements at the Carnegie Library.
The Muzeo museum is well on the way to making downtown a
Anaheim a place to visit again. Plan on spending at least
two hours visiting Muzeo in Anaheim
