Albany Museum of Art features artwork by local and nationally known artists. While the exhibits change throughout the year, children can rely on the AMAzing space where they can create their own artwork.
The growing collection includes 19th and 20th century American and European paintings, drawings, sculptures, watercolors, prints and photographs. Included in the museum are a 200-seat auditorium and a classroom.
Just this year the museum completed a substantial expansion and renovation project which included the Harry and Jane Willson Auditorium, lobby and additional public spaces.
