| Dear Museum Family,
Our beautiful mansion received the expert care it needed to survive the brutal winter season, and I’m excited to announce that the museum will reopen on schedule, on Saturday, March 21, 2026, with the following marvelous exhibitions:
In the meatime, the Manes Art Education Center is bustling with classes, workshops, and events for all ages, and it’s time to register children for the Afterschool Art Lab and Summer Art Lab while places are still available. See the Manes’ web-based calendar!
Across the estate’s 145 acres, signs of spring are evident – the snow is melting and trees are just starting to bud out! Witness the seasons’ welcome changes as you explore 44 magnificent sculptures, the magical pinetum, and miles of wooded trails.
MUSEUM MEMBERS: you will all receive an additional month to the term of your membership to make up for the closure period; this extension will be done automatically for you.
The stunning catalogue for our last exhibition, Real, Surreal, Photoreal, will be available soon and will always be a beautiful resource for you to enjoy.
Again, we sincerely apologize to you for any inconvenience that the closure may have caused and thank you for understanding.
Spring 2026 will be here in just a few weeks – as will the museum’s reopening. We look forward to seeing you here soon!
Best wishes,
Beth Horn
Executive Director
