It’s actually called the Arnot Art Museum. It’s a spot full of history and modern art. One nice thing Elmira does have.
Pretty cool place. They have about four rooms of paintings and one of various antiquities.
Nice selection, and sensibly structured museum
Worthwhile if you are in the area. Although somewhat small in size the museum does display many powerful paintings and sculptures. I believe that if you budgeted an hour here you could see everything with time to reflect on the more powerful pieces. Recommended.
Beautiful museum, great use of space with a well curated collection.
Fantastic piece of history.
The Arnot Art Museum is the crown jewel of culture in Elmira
The Arnot Art Museum is a world-class institution of fine art located at 235 Lake Street in Elmira, New York, and open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10am - 5pm. A landmark in downtown Elmira, the Museum is housed in the 1833 neo-classical mansion of John Arnot. His son, Matthias H. Arnot, added a Picture Gallery in the 1880’s and bequeathed his home and collection in 1910 to become the Arnot Art Museum, which opened to the public three years later. The Museum displays a permanent collection of seventeenth- to nineteenth-century European paintings, nineteenth- and twentieth-century American art and collections of Asian and Egyptian artifacts. Temporary exhibitions highlight various aspects of the collections and include works from museums around the world.
It’s a very nice place to go see art
Very well done. Liked the visit at the museum.
A Hidden Treasure buried in the Heart of Town
Best Art Museum in the Southern Tier!
Great collection, personable docent.
A treasure for our region.
Just a gem set in the middle of county government buildings.
