WELCOME
The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts is a non-profit volunteer-based effort. The purpose of the museum is to serve Rochester and the surrounding areas by preserving, collecting and fostering the understanding of works of art. Our mission is to make fine art easily accessible and to keep works intact for future generations.
The permanent collection has been entirely donated and includes outstanding examples of contemporary works made by artists from around the world. This wide range of art, featuring over 150 pieces, encompasses a variety of media including painting, sculpture, photography, and works on paper. The collection is exhibited in three nearby libraries and the Rochester City Hall.
