The Official Bad Art Museum of Art has moved and is open at a new location.

[Marlow C. Harris, 08/18/2025]

America is big enough to support three Bad Art Museums in three different states, all of them unaffiliated with the others.

Official Bad Art Museum of Art

Seattle's "Official Bad Art Museum of Art" is open in Seattle and it's pretty unusual. It features black velvet paintings of Elvis, scary clowns, paint-by-numbers, and those dogs playing poker.

[Marlow Harris, 10/26/2008]

This museum is not affiliated with the Museum of Bad Art in Massachusetts...judging from the velvet paintings and dogs playing poker scenes shown here, the two collections and criteria for bad art don't really overlap.
