Description:

American art is the main focus of the collection at the Palmer Museum of Art, with a museum collection of over 5,000 objects representative of the vast bodies of works created both in this country and abroad. While the art from Europe, Africa, the Asiatic countries and others are always fascinating, the collections of American works are both more expansive and more detailed. See wonderful examples of early American portraiture, 19th century landscape painting, early modernism and more in this amazing, free museum. It sits on the university campus, just a short drive from the Centre Furnace Mansion historic home.
