Amazing galleries...huge variety of styles, mediums, time frames etc. I went especially to see the pieces depicting the Hudson valley and surrounds, but was impressed by the amount of other famous artists represented whose art was displayed in the next door galleries. If you love art, this is worth your while!

Great rotating art gallery. The Bloomberg Connect app helps with the experience and the 2pm tour on Saturday and Sunday would be a good option if able to.

My friend Kim and I had a wonderful time looking at the beautiful art displayed here. We also truly appreciated the helpful Staff-especially Kimberly Marie (don’t know her last name) She answered all our questions and made us feel very welcome. I will definitely be back again and again ❤️
