About The Heckscher Museum of Art

The Heckscher Museum of Art in Huntington displays rotating exhibitions of paintings and sculptures from its permanent collection and special shows. Visitors explore works including modern art from 1910–1945, still life paintings, and contemporary pieces by young artists. The museum features "Eclipse of the Sun Now," a exhibition examining identity and cultural issues through work by Latinx artists. A free digital guide available through the Bloomberg Connects app enhances visits with exclusive content about artworks in the galleries. Visitors can extend their experience through two accessible outdoor soundwalks: one at nearby Dove/Torr Cottage and another in Heckscher Park just outside the museum. The museum participates in the annual Huntington Village Art Walk, connecting visitors to other galleries and museums in the area. General admission is free. The museum serves families, art enthusiasts, and community members seeking to engage with visual art and cultural conversations on Long Island.
