Locust Grove was founded by philanthropist Annette Young who created a not-for-profit museum to preserve her inherited family homes and art collections for the benefit of the public. Through exhibits of contemporary art we seek to continue the Young family’s support of the arts into a new century.

Barrett Art Center works with curators from around the globe to bring exemplary contemporary art from international artists to its exhibitions in the Hudson Valley. Our reputation for high-quality exhibitions and programs attracts thousands of art enthusiasts to our 1840s Greek Revival townhouse-turned gallery annually. Arts professionals from Barrett Art Center are part of the curatorial team juroring the shows.
