Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art

Through its collections, exhibitions, and public programs, The Dorsky supports and enriches the academic curriculum at the college, presents a broad range of world art for study and enjoyment, and serves as a center for Hudson Valley arts and culture. The Dorsky's temporary exhibition program includes exhibitions drawn from the museum's collection as well as exhibitions and projects by nationally and internationally recognized artists. Each summer the Museum sponsors thematic exhibitions of work by Hudson Valley artists, featuring works by artists living in the mid-Hudson Valley region.

With six elegant galleries comprising more than 9,000 square feet of exhibition space, the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art at SUNY New Paltz is a major cultural resource in the Hudson Valley and one of the largest museums in the university system. The Dorsky's permanent collection comprises roughly 6,000 works of art, with areas of focus that include American Art, with an emphasis on the Hudson Valley and Catskill Region, 19th, 20th and 21st century photography and metals. A small but excellent "world collection" of art and artifacts dating back to ancient times and representing diverse cultures enhances the museum's exhibitions and educational activities.
