The Walters Art Museum

The Walters Art Museum is a not-for-profit institution located in Baltimore, Maryland. The museum employs 161 people and generates $7.7 million in annual revenue. The Walters Art Museum houses a vast collection spanning thousands of years of art history, from the third millennium B.C. to the early 20th century. Its holdings encompass a diverse range of artifacts, including Egyptian mummies, Renaissance suits of armor, Fabergé eggs, Art Nouveau jewelry, and old master paintings. One of the museum's greatest strengths lies in its exceptional collections of ivories, jewelry, enamels, bronzes, illuminated manuscripts, and rare books, many of which are considered to be among the finest in America. The Walters also boasts particularly strong holdings in Egyptian, Greek and Roman, Byzantine, Ethiopian, and western medieval art, as well as Renaissance and Asian art. Visitors can explore the museum's collections at its location in Baltimore's historic Mount Vernon Cultural District at North Charles and Centre streets.
