The New Museum Los Gatos is a cultural gem in the heart of the town. Its contemporary art exhibitions are thought-provoking and innovative, showcasing both established and emerging artists. The museum's architecture itself is a work of art, seamlessly blending with its surroundings. The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable, providing valuable insights into the exhibits. It's a space that fosters creativity and dialogue. Whether you're an art enthusiast or just looking for a unique cultural experience, the New Museum Los Gatos is a must-visit destination.

Pleasantly surprised. Much more interesting than I thought it would be. A great small museum, an asset for the town. I've been to other museums which look like a glorified garage. Not here. Everything is so well presented. The interior of the building modern looking, spacious, clean, and well lit. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Bonus - admission is free if you are a resident. Only criticism is the light reflection off some of the glass/plexiglass cases is very distracting.

This museum is in the heart of Los Gatos by the library and High School. It is a smaller museum, but it has history and class! It was great learning about how the land has changed and the indigenous group that occupied it in the past. It was a really unique, fun and creative place. They have an art contest every year for high schoolers and the winning art work is put into a magazine for the community to view. If you would like a momento, they give you a token in exchange for $5 to put through an old cigarette machine. Each knob you pull, you get a unique piece of art work by different artists!
