Located in the 1839 Old Custom House, now expanded with new construction that ties together five historic buildings, the collections of the Erie Art Museum contain nearly 7,000 objects.
It is an eclectic collection, with recognized holdings of Tibetan art, and particularly strong representation of NW Pennsylvania Folk Art traditions. Notable is the collection of contemporary art baskets.
