This exhibition marks the culmination of a year-long festival of events and programs presented by the Institute to commemorate its 75th anniversary as central New York's premier cultural institution. Enhancing A Legacy unveils the large and impressive collection of more than 100 artworks numerous friends donated or promised to the Museum over the past two years in honor of its 75 years of service to the public. The exhibition also features several pieces of historical and contemporary sculpture, video art, paintings and decorative arts the Museum purchased over the past two years with financial assistance from several donors, as well as from the Easton Pribble and the William C. and Catherine Palmer funds, and the Museum's Docent Fund for Acquisitions.
