Originally known as The Youth Museum of Imperial Polk County, in 1966 The Junior Welfare League of Lakeland founded the Polk Museum of Art as an all-volunteer not-for-profit institution. According to the Museum’s website, in 1969 the name was changed to what we know today as the Polk Museum of Art.
“It began as a museum with children’s art, live animals and a whole mix of different types of objects and culture,” said Alex Rich, executive director, and chief curator for the Polk Museum of Art.
