Visit the Museum
The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts is committed to infusing art into every day places. We utilize public spaces in order to make exceptional fine art easily accessible, while enhancing the visual landscape of the city. Our displays are located in the Rochester Community Center (Suite 135) and the Rochester Public Library. They include select pieces from our permanent collection and exhibits that change over every two months.
