Jepson Center for the Arts
The modern art museum of the Telfair Museums, a white glass building designed by Moshe Safdie.
The Jepson Center opened in 2006 and was designed by architect Moshe Safdie. Its white stone and glass atrium contrasts with the historic buildings across the street. It displays 20th- and 21st-century contemporary art, photography and touring exhibitions, and the second floor has an interactive art space for children. The Jepson Center, the Telfair Academy and the Owens–Thomas House all belong to the Telfair Museums, and a combined ticket for all three is valid for multiple visits within one week. It is located on York Street, facing the Telfair Academy across the street.
