How you help	There are many ways the members and those wishing to become members of TAMA can help advance the efforts of the Torrance Art Museum! Helping us spread the word about our group as well as the exhibitions at the museum by word of mouth, posting on social media, volunteering to sit at the desk at the TAM or by advocating for the museum at the City Council meetings are all ways that will help ensure the TAM continues to thrive in the city.

About us	In November of 2013 a group of interested volunteers came together to discuss the possibility of forming an organization to support the artistic, educational and community-building efforts of the Torrance Art Museum (TAM). After several meetings and much hard work this group became a reality.
