America:
portrayed anew, peopled with contemporary heroes,
framed with new frontiers. A nation captured on
canvas, colored by an era of modern
proportions.
Dedicated exclusively to
American Art, the Ogunquit Museum of
American Art houses over 1,500 of the nation's most
important paintings, sculpture, drawings, prints and
photographs from the late 1800s to the present.
In addition to its
world-renowned collection, the Ogunquit Museum of
American Art's location overlooking Narrow Cove
is breathtaking. The dramatic setting attracted
numerous artists in the late 1800s, helping to make
Ogunquit one of America's first art colonies. Among
the distinguished artists who have worked in
Ogunquit are Marsden Hartley, Edward Hopper and
Walt Kuhn.
