Walter Anderson Museum of Art

The Walter Anderson Museum of Art inspires discovery, imagination, and community-building on the Gulf Coast and beyond through programs, exhibitions, and outreach; and embodies Walter Anderson’s vision for societies in harmony with their environments. The Walter Anderson Museum of Art is a nationally accredited art museum located in historic Ocean Springs on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Since its founding in 1991, WAMA has been a keystone of the state’s cultural life. WAMA is dedicated to the preservation and celebration of artist-philosopher Walter Inglis Anderson (1903-1965). Walter Anderson’s paintings, drawings, murals, block prints, sculpture, carvings, and writings of coastal plants, animals, landscapes, and people have placed him among the most compelling and singular artists of the 20th century. WAMA also honors Anderson's brothers, Peter Anderson (1901-1984), master potter and founder of Shearwater Pottery; and James McConnell Anderson (1907-1998), noted painter and ceramist. WAMA's mission is to empower lifelong curiosity & connection to the natural world through the art of Walter Inglis Anderson and kindred artists.
