Art & Museums In Baldwin County, our history and culture make us unique along the Gulf Coast. From our farming and seafaring heritage to our present-day mix of work and play, we have the best of everything here.

You can find out more about where we’ve been and where we’re headed by visiting one of the county’s museums. And if variety truly is the spice of life, you’ll find it inside one of our art galleries.

Drop by Tom Jones Pottery in Fairhope, honor our heroes at USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park, pause to reflect upon the past at Blakeley State Park near Spanish Fort, imagine you’re the conductor at the Foley Railroad Museum, expand your inner artist at Jan’s Art Studio, take a peek at our agricultural roots at the Baldwin County Heritage Museum in Elberta and visit those who lived here before us at the Indian and Sea Museum.

Peruse the works of over 250 artists at the Foley Art Center and walk through the first hospital in Southern Baldwin County, the Holmes Medical Museum.

Yes, Baldwin County is blessed with beautiful beaches, warm and friendly people and wonderful opportunities to explore and learn.

So, what are you waiting for?
