Joshua Tree is best known within California for its close association with Joshua Tree National Park. This High Desert community lies on the park’s northwestern side, below the Little San Bernardino Mountains, where the Mojave and Colorado deserts meet. The park is defined by its namesake Joshua trees and broad fields of weathered granite boulders, protected across nearly 800,000 acres. In town, the Noah Purifoy Desert Art Museum preserves an open-air assemblage installation by the influential African American artist.
