Museums
ARTS, CULTURE AND THE REST IS HISTORY.
When rock singer John Mellencamp wanted to display his paintings in Central Florida, he skipped Orlando and brought his work to the Museum of Art-DeLand. He realized what we’ve always known: the best stories are found a little out there.
West Volusia County is home to more than 14 museums and cultural institutions. Discover treasures like the African American Museum of the Arts, the Enterprise Museum, and Stetson University’s Gillespie Museum—home to one of the largest private collections of minerals and gems in the Southeast.
