The Steffen Thomas Museum of Art is one of the few single-artist museums in the United States. Steffen Thomas (1906-1990), a German-born artist, became a “sculptor of note” at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg at the age of 21. He moved to the United States at the age of 22, where he became renowned as a multidisciplinary artist. He married Atlanta resident Sara Douglass in 1933 and became an American citizen in 1935. His Trilon sculpture remains a famous Atlanta landmark.

The museum, located in the original Buckhead, Georgia (an hour from Atlanta and only 10 minutes from historic Madison, Georgia) contains several main galleries, exhibition galleries, and special gallery spaces. The museum has a permanent collection of over 400 pieces, as well as access to thousands of pieces of Steffen’s works from the Thomas Family Collection, “STAR.”
