The Oakland Art Museum, originally called the Oakland Art Gallery, was established in January 1916 as an administrative unit of the city of Oakland. Its name was changed to Oakland Art Museum in 1953. Directed by Paul Mills from 1953 to 1969, the museum was located in the loft of the Oakland Auditorium. Although intended as a temporary location, the auditorium remained the home of the collection until, in 1969, the collection was merged into the new Oakland Museum.
