Located in an authentic Gold Coast mansion on the former Frick family estate, the Nassau County Museum of Art presents multiple fine art exhibitions and related public and educational programs each year. The property features a sculpture garden with 44 major works on view, formal gardens, a century-old pinetum, and miles of wooded trails on the 145-acre preserve. Also on the estate is the Manes Art Education Center, which offers year-round classes and seasonal events for all ages and abilities and hosts an Artist-in-Residence program.

NCMA presents Louis Comfort Tiffany: Artist of the Gilded Age (July 25 - November 8, 2026), a landmark exhibition celebrating one of America's most influential artists and designers. Featuring more than 130 oil and watercolor paintings from the Museum's extraordinary holdings, the exhibition offers an unprecedented examination of Tiffany's achievements as a painter and demonstrates how his lifelong engagement with painting informed the innovations that would later make him internationally renowned in the decorative arts.
