Richmond Art Museum
Offers Exhibitions and More
The Richmond Art Museum, founded in 1898, is a fine
art museum with a permanent collection of American
Impressionists, Taos School, the Hoosier Group, the
Richmond School and other regional artists.
It also has a small but significant collection of
local ceramic artists including works by potters of
the Arts and Craft Movement, the Overbeck Sisters
and the Bethel Pike potters. The museum is located
in the Richmond High School complex along the
beautiful Whitewater Gorge and is the only museum in
the United States to be housed in a high school.
The museum has an active exhibition schedule, art
related trips, special events, and education
programs with the public schools. A collection
catalogue was published in 2001.
