The museum collection is housed in a 100-year old brick building which formerly served as an elementary school. Our extensive assortment of approximately 25,000 artifacts fall into four categories: multicultural, Victorian, natural history, and items that relate to Mohawk Valley's colorful industrial past (documentary, photographic and tangible).
The Museum's collections are eclectic and diverse. In addition to "DISCOVERY!" other permanent exhibits include "A Complicated Weave: the influence of factories on the community", a Victorian Exhibit, and a Natural History exhibit. We are always developing new offerings as well as temporary exhibits by local artists.

As a department of the United States Military Academy, the Museum supports cadet academic, military and cultural instruction. Its collections include nearly all aspects of military history and encompass the history of West Point and the United States Military Academy, the evolution of warfare, and the development of the American Armed Forces. While only a portion of the collection is on display, all artifacts are available for cadet academic instruction, special exhibition and research.

The entrance to the gallery is directly up a flight of stairs (or an elevator) to a lobby area for the gallery, (handicapped equipped) after which visitors enter the gallery through a set of glass doors and immediately view the room inside (shown in the two photos). The gallery has exhibitions of local and regional artists every few months, and all the shows are free and open to the public.
