“If I could list more stars, I would. This little museum was such a delight on a cold winter day. Aileen at the front desk greeted us warmly and made the experience priceless with stories of the history of the museum and area. We left with a much greater understanding of Hopper and how his home life influenced his work. If you’ve appreciated “Woman in the Sun”, you should pop by Nyack to read about Hopper’s muse & wife Jo. Read one of her loopy handwritten letters upstairs describing “Nighthawks” publications if you want to smile. The selections of the museum, while lacking the famous paintings, showcase the personality of Hopper and those around him. Each time I see a Hopper painting, I’ll be thinking fondly of his childhood home and doodles we saw here. There’s a lovely creative room on the second floor where anyone can draw and spend some time after looking at the museum and some local art. Thank you so much for having this place where art is not just preserved, but encouraged to grow.”
