The outside of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery looks like an invitation to step back toAncient Greek times. Inside the pieces are thoroughly modern. Operated by the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy, the gallery is among the oldest and most prestigious art institutions in the United States. The museum’s name honours the two men who shaped its creation. John J. Albright, a Buffalo businessman and philanthropist, commissioned the Greek Revival building’s construction in 1890\. Benefactor Seymour Knox Jr. donated funds to build a new wing and helped the museum grow its collection by nearly 700 works throughout the 20th century. Look for some of the biggest names in art history on the gallery’s walls. Take a free guided tour or explore at your own pace, seeing exhibits that range from the 18th century to present day. The collections are as varied as they are colourful impressionists like Vincent van Gogh are just a short distance from surrealists like Salvador Dalí. Iconic works, like Frieda Kahlo’s self portrait and Andy Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup cans, will delight art enthusiasts of all levels. The museum also has a history of supporting up-and-coming contemporary artists, from Jackson Pollock in the 1950s to current talent like Matthew Barney and Tara Donovan. Over 6,000 works are held in the permanent collection. Touring exhibits frequently visit as well. Call in advance to see what is on display when you are visiting. If you get hungry during your gallery hopping, stop by the AK Café for a meal. The nearby gift shop is the perfect place to pick up a poster or a book to remember your trip by. There is plenty of on-site parking at the museum. Bring your ticket into the museum to get it validated for a reduced parking rate. For a small admission fee, you can visit Albright-Knox Art Gallery any day of the week except Monday, when it is closed. On the first Friday of every month, it is open extra late. During these nighttime hours, special tours and art classes are available to the public. ### Popular places to visit ![Buffalo showing interior views](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6064443/ff79e0b8-9d4c-48e8-ad3f-b89d461ae5e5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Buffalo History Museum Hundreds of thousands of exhibits reveal the long and fascinating history of Western New York at this charming museum, which is over 150 years old.
