About
Perched on an 80-foot bluff on the edge of the Tennessee River, the Hunter Museum of American Art offers stunning views of the river and the surrounding mountains. This panorama is equaled only by the exceptional collection of American art inside, recognized as one of the country’s finest. The collection includes paintings, works on paper, sculpture, photography, mixed media, furniture and studio glass from the 18th century to the present day. Our mission is to engage our diverse audiences in active dialogues about the importance, meaning, and relevance of American art. We believe that art and creativity are forces for personal growth and positive community change; therefore, education is at the heart of all that we do.
