Electra Havemeyer Webb founded the museum in 1947, with an expansive vision of American art, culture and history. Today, the museum houses important collections and artifacts of significance from across the globe. The museum has a comprehensive website - see link below.
Visitors should plan to bring comfortable shoes. Museum tickets are good for 2 consecutive days, and I recommend planning for both. Also bring the good camera, and plenty of batteries!
