The Arkell Museum | Canajoharie, New York

The Arkell Museum at Canajoharie has just reopened in a new building, with exhibitions on American art and Mohawk Valley history. Visitors to the museum will discover paintings by American artists such as Winslow Homer, Childe Hassam, Robert Henri, Maurice Prendergast, and Georgia O’Keeffe on display in the galleries. Examples of Beech-Nut advertising are also featured in new exhibitions, and we have scheduled a variety of exciting programs and events that are open to the public. The Arkell Museum is located halfway between Albany and Utica — just three blocks from Exit 29 on the New York State Thruway (I-90).

Now showing at the Museum...

Games, Gizmos and Toys in the Attic!

Walter Wick’s photographs and models escape the book to assume a larger than life presence that magically draws both children and adults into a world of make believe. The exhibition, organized by the New Britain Museum of American Art, includes enlarged photographs and models used for Walter Wick’s popular I Spy and Can You See What I See? children’s books.
