The Art, Design & Architecture Museum (AD&A), formerly the University Art Museum (UAM), is located on the campus of the UCSB in Goleta, California, United States. Built in 1959, it was originally a gallery for art education at UCSB.[1] Today the AD&A contains a fine art collection of over 8,500 works.
Collection
Other than the 8,500 original works the AD&A also possesses over 1,000,000 architectural drawings, historic photographs, writings, scrapbooks, and three-dimensional objects in the Architecture and Design Collection.[1]
The museum's digital collections were enhanced during the COVID-19 crisis so that audiences could continue to enjoy its resources while quarantine was in place.[2]
