Nassau County Museum of Art: Entry Ticket

About this experience

Nassau County Museum of Art is a museum in New York set on a 145-acre estate in Roslyn Harbor, Long Island. The property has deep roots in American cultural history: it was once the home of William Cullen Bryant, the 19th-century poet, lawyer, and conservationist who made the estate a gathering place for artists, writers, and thinkers of his era. The main museum building presents rotating and permanent exhibitions drawn from a broad range of periods and styles, with works spanning painting, sculpture, and works on paper from both American and international artists. Beyond the galleries, the grounds are a significant draw in their own right. Visitors can spend considerable time exploring the sculpture garden, which places large-scale works in a landscaped setting, and walking the hiking trails that wind across the estate. The combination of indoor exhibitions and outdoor sculpture makes the museum a full afternoon visit rather than a brief stop. Entry tickets cover general admission to the galleries and access to the sculpture garden and grounds. The museum is wheelchair accessible, and the starting point for your visit is One Museum Drive. For more things to do in New York, the wider region offers a range of cultural and outdoor attractions worth planning around.
