They host classes available to the community- one I took was pasta making which I'd never would have thought I'd make pasta in an art museum which made it even more glorious. Always check to see what exhibits are in house & take the time to appreciate the space when you have the opportunity to.

My favorite event is the Annual Festival of Trees. They are celebrating the 40th year of the event this year and the trees are creative and amazing. This event is held the first 2 weeks of December and offers a variety of decorated trees on display throughout the museum. Trees, wreaths and other holiday creations are donated by local artists and businesses. The trees are for sale for anyone interested and most-if not all-proceeds go to the museum. If you purchase an item it can be picked up/ delivered after the last day of the festival, which this year is December 13th! In 2020 I purchased a Peanuts tree that was donated by a family who's grandmother/mother had passed and I still display the tree every year. There are also scheduled music and dance performances, arts and crafts, and live music in the main gallery. Santa even appears on some days and volunteers are welcome via sign up. They used to have an opening night gala that was held the night before the festival opened to the public which offered heavy hors d'oeurves, live music, and first pick of items for sale. I think this stopped with the pandemic and have hoped for it's return. Anyway if you have a chance to go see the trees, it's a festive addition to the holiday season!

    After touring the nearby Stickley factory we drove a few miles to the Fayetteville library where…read morethis gem of a museum is located on the second floor. This used to be the factory years ago. The library on the first floor is hands down the best furnished library we've been in since it was all Stickley furniture! The museum is small but well done with good displays. The curator Amanda was very helpful and enthusiastic. We learned a lot on top of the tour we just did. Highly recommend but check the days and hours that the museum is open since they are limited.

    We planned to tour the Stickley Museum as an add-on rather than a focal point of our family's…read morevacation itinerary, but it turned out to be the highlight of our trip! In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we were surprised we stayed so long! And, we hope to return! I must say that our enjoyment was mainly due to the personableness and knowledgeability of the director and curator, Amanda Clifford, who communicated effectively from day one; that is, the day I emailed before the trip, and that's out of the country since we're not even Americans! We're Canadians and we're antique furniture artisans. Amanda was so attuned to our passions--perhaps sharing them even--that the three of us covered a lot of territory together at once. We felt like the tour was a real treat, being able to discourse deeply over the mechanics, aesthetics, history, sentimental values plus the current appreciation of antique furniture. We discussed the variety of woods, the types of structural techniques, the idiosyncrasy per Stickley brother, and enjoyed listening to all the fascinating stories behind specific pieces, time periods, and personalities. The visit really adds meaning to our own work! Moreover, the museum is situated above a lovely public library, which kept our kids, who preferred to do something other than to study old furniture, busy with computers and books while my husband and I toured the floor above. The librarians were friendly and accommodating. Even more, every space in that building, including the washrooms, seems to be furnished with prized pieces of Stickley antiques! The venue, including its outdoor garden and indoor cafe, has a wonderful atmosphere all around! While explaining some of the history of the Stickley company, Amanda ended up also covering information on Fayetteville, a quaint, history-preserving community, plus other cities and regions in the state of New York. Every question we asked her--be it regarding furniture, geography, history, or just plan tourist-related interests--was answered with expertise, courtesy, and thoughtfulness. Thank you, Amanda, for making the tour a thorough pleasure! We hope to return in the near future for a visit to the Stickley factory in nearby Manlius, NY, too! ------------------------------- People may not realize this as personally until they visit a museum like this one, but the pieces of wood we use as furniture in our homes are items we live with day and out, and throughout history. How we make them, use them, decorate with them, choose them, maintain them, and value them speaks a great deal about the culture from which we come and about the characters who own them. This is what makes furniture both pragmatic and personal, functional and fascinating, and why so much of ourselves as human beings is invested into antiques; hence, making a visit to the Stickley Museum so significant.

The collection is well curated, showing a variety of mediums and perspectives. A lot of the exhibits rotate so that the vast art collection at SU can be seen, as having the ability to bring in traveling exhibits. Most of what I saw while I was there would be on display until March 2022. Wandering through the rooms I found myself moved by the visiting exhibit in the first couple of room, which was "Per(Sister) Incarcerated Women of Louisiana". It had a variety of mediums conveying the stories of women in prison. It felt really accessible, art which would reach and communicate clearly to anyone. "Reckonings: American Art and the Slow Violence of Climate Crisis", was a handful of images brought together by SU students from the 1800 through mid-1900s which had a really thought provoking commentary on art as a reflection of climate change and human treatment of the environment. The work on display of Mary Petty made me laugh, and again think deeper about the time and context in which she was creating her illustrations. More traditional and global work can be found in the Collection Highlights. If on campus to visit the museum on the weekend you can use the College Lot for free. It's only a block from the museum so it's quite convenient. For the size the Art Museum delivers a lot and it is well worth a visit.
