Eugene and Clare Thaw Collection of American Indian Art July 15, 2010

In 1995, the Fenimore Art Museum embarked upon a new era with the addition of a new American Indian Wing designed to house the gift from Eugene and Clare Thaw of their collection of American Indian art. The collection has continued to grow as new objects are added by the Thaws and other donors, and today numbers almost 850 objects. The collection can be seen in changing galleries and in the Study Center, an open storage space.
