Presently there is an exhibit running from September 10 through November 6 which is worth viewing. "Album of Flowers/Interesting Times" places still life flowers against a background of 2016...

Loved this art gallery; it was a perfect way to escape the cold weather and see traditional paintings and sculptures. I loved seeing the beautiful Tiffany stained glass and jewelry on display and learn more about their local history in New London. Must visit if you're a local art fan!

Very nice collection of works of American painters of several generations. Real art as opposed to “modern” art style of some museums.

Excellent exhibits were being shown when we visited (Tiffany was one). Very friendly customer service there too. Picnic tables were outside for seating with outdoor art to enjoy as well. We were happy we stopped.

There aren't many "big name" artists' works displayed, there are lots of interesting pieces tied to the history of the area. The main exhibits are presented in chronological order and the placards tell a nice story tracing the evolution of art in America. The special collections were good. We attended on a free day, so that made it even better. This isn't a big museum, but it flaunts what it has!
