SATURDAY: Westchester Sketchers VENUE CHANGED to the Neuberger Museum

 

The Neuberger Museum of Art, located at the heart of Purchase College, SUNY, is a vital cultural resource of modern, contemporary, and African art for Westchester County, NY and beyond. From the mid-century American art and African art that form the core of the collection to the presentation of contemporary art, the museum continues the commitment of founding patron Roy R. Neuberger (1903-2010) by championing the art of our time.

There is a new exhibit:
The Friends at 50: Selections from the Collection



Remarkable in its breadth and depth, this exhibition is comprised of major works of art that have come into the Museum’s collection over the past fifty years through the efforts of the Friends of the Neuberger Museum of Art, an organization of dedicated local, regional, and national supporters who help the NEU grow and thrive.
