Item Description

(2) Tickets to the Fenimore Art Museum/The Farmers' Museum

Fenimore Art Museum:

5798 State Highway 80, Cooperstown, NY 13326; (607) 547-1400

One of the nation's premier art institutions, the Fenimore is home to an exceptionally rich collection of American folk art and American Indian art, as well as important holdings in American decorative arts, photography, and 20th-century art. Formal gardens overlook Otsego Lake and visitors can get a glimpse of American Indian lives circa the 1750s at the Bark House on the shores of the lake.

Fenimore Art Museum is dedicated to welcoming and connecting people to our shared cultural heritage through exhibitions and programs that engage, delight and inspire.

The Farmers' Museum:

5775 State Highway 80, Cooperstown, NY 13326; (607) 547-1450

America's history comes alive-daily chores are carried out at the working farm while commerce flourishes at the Village Crossroad. Visitors experience the interplay among trades, village life and agriculture in New York State circa 1845. The museum, one of the oldest living history museums, features exhibits, craft demonstrations and hands-on activities that bring history to life.

Cultivating an understanding of the rural heritage
that has shaped our land, communities and American culture.
