The Peabody Essex Museum in Salem was created to celebrate outstanding artistic and cultural creativity by collecting, stewarding and interpreting objects of art and culture in ways that increase knowledge, enrich the spirit, engage the mind and stimulate the senses. It is one of the 25 largest art museums in the nation and one of the fastest growing in North America.
