About
The University of West Florida's Pensacola Museum of Art presents engaging cross-disciplinary exhibitions, educational programming, and stewards a growing collection of modern and contemporary art of the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries. The museum aims to promote the understanding and appreciation of art and ideas to audiences in the Northwest Florida region and beyond. We endeavor to create dialogue between university and community audiences by engendering experiences of joy, discovery, and creativity through diverse perspectives, and the transdisciplinary interactions of art, culture, the humanities, science, and technology.
HISTORY
As a Jail
In 1906, the City of Pensacola made plans to construct a two-story building to house the City Jail, City Courthouse, Police Department, and Shore Patrol. Built in Spanish Revival Style, it was the first permanent jail in the community. Prior to that there were only small, makeshift facilities to hold prisoners. Building the structure was culturally significant because it was physical evidence of the community’s commitment to public safety and justice. The judge heard cases on assault, public drunkenness, disorderly conduct, selling liquor on Sunday, traffic offenses, lewdness, and other misdemeanors. From 1908 until the 1940’s the jail usually housed 15 to 25 prisoners, three or four being women. The jail served the community for four decades until the needs of a growing population outgrew the 12,000 square foot structure.
As an Art Center
In 1954, members of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) envisioned a venue to exhibit traveling art exhibitions; offer art classes for both children and adults; and to provide meeting space for members of the community as well as a venue for lectures, films and other cultural presentations. Joining with others in the community who shared this vision, they formed the Pensacola Art Association.
When the City of Pensacola replaced the City Jail in 1954, the Pensacola Art Association sought to secure the building. The Spanish Revival structure was well-suited to become an arts center. The jail was already fireproof, secure and centrally located in Pensacola’s historic downtown district. The City agreed to lease the jail for $1 a year and the Art Association’s board members transformed the former jail cells into exhibition spaces. The Art Association (which became the Pensacola Museum of Art in 1982) purchased the building in 1988.

Vlog: National Naval Aviation Museum and Fort Barrancas - Pensacola, Florida 20150407
The National Naval Aviation Museum is one of the best aviation museums in the world. Even if you don;t care about history simply wandering among the planes stacked up as if in a giants toy cabinet is amazing.
Fort Barrancas is... yet another brick fort... but if you're on the Naval Air Station anyway its a decent way to spend and hour or so.

There is a demonstrated need in the USA for more education and awareness about the American military experience, both for children and adults. The Museum of Military History helps to fill this need by providing interactive exhibits,
workshops, lectures, publications and outreach programs.
The museum's exhibits and displays are dynamic, entertaining, hands-on and interactive, to impart both knowledge and critical thinking skills, while at the same time inspiring a sense of fun and adventure. The Museum of Military History layers its
exhibits and information on a number of different levels. This fosters learning for a diverse audience, including students, experts and amateurs from local, national and global audiences.
The goal is to help people from all walks of life, and with all levels of knowledge, to better understand and evaluate the experience of combat for American veterans. To this end, the Museum of Military History combines aspects of science, history, art and anthropology museums. The result will be an exploration of modern combat and what it was like as an American to serve his or her country in time of war. This will serve as an important center for education and culture in Osceola County.
The core function of the Museum of Military History is to encourage, foster and support education in these fields by making learning tangible, interesting and interactive. The Museum of Military History hopes to inspire our visitors with a desire to learn and think critically, encouraging curiosity.
The Museum of Military History supports this desire by filling a void in today's learning resources; it will use resources that are not readily available from other sources.
The Museum of Military History provides interactive exhibits, games and displays from which people of all ages and backgrounds can learn about the individual soldier's experience.
