James A. Michener Art Museum

Art Suburbs & Beyond

The museum houses a world-class collection of Pennsylvania Impressionist paintings and an outdoor sculpture garden, as well as nationally-touring special exhibitions. Classes for children, adults, and educators, as well as themed events, are offered year-round.
