Fútbol: The Art of the Game Various Artists MAY 16 - AUG 2 Will be on View in the Marquee: Cowell Room Gallery < Back Overview Athletics and sports have been a part of human history for thousands of years. As time has passed, the games have changed but one thing remains constant – community. Sports provides us with another means to come together, to collaborate, to share something exciting and meaningful with each other. Art has also been around for thousands of years, and to celebrate the upcoming FIFA World Cup* soccer games coming to Santa Clara this summer, the Triton Museum of Art is hosting a special exhibition combining both sports and art – Fútbol: The Art of the Game. Soccer, also known as fútbol, is a sport played by millions of people around the world. It’s also a sport that combines passion and community. This special exhibition features one-of-a-kind artwork from a talented group of diverse Bay Area artists. The exhibition is also a special fundraiser for the Museum. These skilled artists have given their time and talents to provide the Museum with donated works that corresponds with the soccer theme – their art, in their style, will either incorporate an actual soccer ball or a recreated one. All works will be for sale through the Museum, starting at the artists’ reception on May 16, 2026 at 12:00 pm, and through the duration of the exhibition.** All funds received from the sale of these works goes directly back to the Triton Museum of Art to help support our mission of art, community, and education. We wish to thank all of the participating artists – it is because of you, our community, that we exist and thrive. *The Triton Museum of Art is not affiliated with FIFA or any professional soccer or sports association. ** Artwork will be sold on a first come, first served basis. We will not be reserving works for anyone; they must be purchased directly from the Museum in person starting at the artists’ reception. If artwork is not sold at the reception, it will remain for sale through the duration of the exhibition. Any sold works will remain on view in the Triton Museum for the duration of the exhibition and may be picked up by the buyer from the Museum once the exhibition has concluded.
