One of the world’s largest and most impressive collections of Impressionist and post-Impressionist art is on display at The Barnes Foundation. Albert C. Barnes, a multi-millionaire pharmaceutical inventor and manufacturer, amassed the collection of more than 2,500 art objects including 180 paintings by Renoir, 69 by Cezanne and 60 by Matisse, along with others by Picasso, Seurat, Modigliani and Monet.

Mill Grove Audubon Center was the first home in America of renowned wildlife artist John James Audubon, whose work inspired the conservation movement that bears his name. Visitors to the house can see where he lived, a priceless collection of his original works, and the landscape that inspired him.

At galleries and art centers throughout the region, visitors can see ever-changing displays of work, take classes and experience the region’s vibrant art scene.
