Edward Hopper House Art Center is the birthplace and childhood home of renowned American realist painter Edward Hopper (1882-1967).  Now a dynamic multi-arts center, we present art exhibitions featuring the work of emerging and established artists and juried theme shows in all styles and media. There are also programs and events for children and adults throughout the year, including an outdoor summer jazz concert series, weekly figure drawing sessions, monthly poetry and songwriting workshops, as well as drawing, painting, and photography classes, and much more.  

This historic house, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was an important influence on Hopper’s art throughout his life – views from his childhood, the play of light in various rooms, and nearby post-Victorian architecture were distilled into his art, creating the powerful moods in his paintings.    

Edward Hopper House Art Center is located in Nyack, New York, just 20 miles from New York City.
