BRATTLEBORO MUSEUM AND ART CENTER

'Brattleboro Museum and Art Center' is a non-collecting contemporary art museum located at 10 Vernon Street in downtown Brattleboro, Vermont. It serves as a link to the world of art and as a community center. This private non-profit organization aims to present the art works in such a manner that entertains, educates, and inspires audiences of all ages.
Founded on September 10, 1972, Brattleboro Museum and Art Center stands as a living memorial of the ancient railroad station - the Union Station. In 1974, the Union Station became the town's first building to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. During the 1970s, a dedicated group of volunteers took the charge of running the museum. And by 1981, the first professional director, W. Ron Foulds, was hired to run the museum.
BMAC offers high quality exhibitions as well as several visit options for school groups and other organizations. Educational programs for life-long learning and significant school programs are also conducted by museum staff and volunteers. Brattleboro Museum and Art Center also offers membership.
The Green River Garden lies to the south end of the museum. The Museum Shop in the main gallery is an added facility.
Brattleboro Museum and Art Center participates in Gallery Walk, the first Friday of every month.
