Islip Art Museum (Closed Temporarily)
Arts & Culture · East Islip, NY
About
If you love contemporary art but prefer a quieter setting than a city gallery, this is for you. The Islip Art Museum feels more like a retreat than a typical museum, with its park-like grounds setting the tone before you even step inside. It regularly hosts exhibits that rival NYC's, and the summer artist residency program lets creators build multimedia works on-site.
The museum is closed temporarily, but once it reopens, summer is the best time to visit. Hours are limited: Tuesday through Friday 10am-4pm, Saturday 12pm-4pm. Check ahead before planning your trip. Nearby, the Nassau County Museum of Art offers another option for art lovers on the South Shore.
