Founded officially in 1862, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery is among the world's leading collections of international sculptures and paintings, including works from the 20s and 30s that showcase Cubism, Surrealism, and Constructivism. This museum houses a formidable lineup of artists, including Picasso, Renoir, Monet, Matisse, and Van Gogh. The gallery's collection is especially rich in post-war American and European art, but in recent years it has been significantly increasing its number of modern art pieces as well. A restaurant and gift shop are also on-site, drawing classes are held for children, and public tours are available Thursday through Sunday. Be aware that they are closed on Monday.
