Huntington Museum of Art
About This Museum
Tucked away in the hills of Huntington, this museum feels like a well-kept secret, blending art with the lush West Virginia landscape. You can easily spend an afternoon wandering from serene Asian ceramics to bold American paintings, then step outside to lose yourself on a forest trail. The true showstopper is the conservatory, a glass jewel box bursting with tropical color and fragrance that completely transports you. It’s the kind of place that rewards a slow, meandering visit rather than a rushed checklist.
Collection Highlights
Look for the shimmering Dale Chihuly glass piece that greets you in the lobby, a modern counterpoint to the more traditional works. The American art collection holds some real gems, including poignant portraits from the Colonial era and vibrant 20th-century works.
Visitor Information
Don't just see the art—wear comfortable shoes. The real magic is exploring the sprawling grounds and several miles of wooded trails behind the museum, which are free to access.
Architecture & Building
The main building is a graceful mid-century structure, all clean lines and stone that sits harmoniously within its natural setting, while the newer conservatory adds a striking geometric glass element.
