The Muskegon Museum of Art is an art museum in Muskegon, Michigan. Founded as the Hackley Art Gallery in 1912 through a bequest by Charles Hackley, the museum is located in the Muskegon Historic District.
The timber industrialist and Muskegon resident Charles Hackley left $150,000 in his will to be used for the acquisition of âÂÂpictures of the best kind", known as the Hackley Picture Fund. In 1910, five years after Hackley's death, the Muskegon Public Schools Board of Education decided to construct a museum to house the growing collection. The Hackley Art Gallery was established in 1912 and renamed the Muskegon Museum of Art in 1980 following a major expansion.
From 2024 to 2025, the museum undertook a $15.4 million expansion project to nearly double the museum's size from 31,800 to 57,570 square feet.
The museum houses over 5,000 works in its permanent collection including works by John Steuart Curry, Edward Hopper, Winslow Homer, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Lucas Cranach the Elder, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre Bonnard.
