WELCOME!

As summer makes way for fall, it's the perfect time to visit the Berkshires. Discover the remarkable story of Caribbean-born artist Guillaume Lethière, a leading neoclassical painter who has been all-but-forgotten today. Explore how glass artists from across time and around the globe have taken inspiration from the natural world in Fragile Beauty: Treasures from the Corning Museum of Glass. Timed to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the First Impressionist Exhibition, Edgar Degas: Multi-Media Artist in the Age of Impressionism highlights the innovative and experimental practices of Degas. And don’t miss seeing our latest public spaces installation, David-Jeremiah: I Drive Thee, on view in the Clark Center and in the Manton Research Center. 

It’s also the perfect time to explore our permanent collection galleries or head out on the trails across our 140-acre campus. This season is bustling with a full schedule of events and activities.
