American Folk Art Museum

American Folk Art Museum - New York City

Candid, genuine, and unexpected, the American Folk Art Museum is New York City's only museum dedicated to folk & self-taught artists. Admission is free! www.folkartmuseum.org Since 1961, the American Folk Art Museum has been the leading institution shaping the understanding of art by the self-taught through its exhibitions, publications, and programs. As a center of scholarship, it showcases the creativity of individuals whose singular talents have been refined through personal experience rather than formal artistic training. Its collection includes more than eight thousand works of art from four centuries and nearly every continent—from compelling portraits and dazzling quilts to powerful works by living artists in a variety of mediums.
