The Picker Collection is home to nearly 11,000 artworks from around the world, with traditional strengths in twentieth-century European and American art. We are continually growing our collection of twenty-first century art, focusing on women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ artists, in addition to collecting more works by local and regional artists.
The Longyear collection was established as an important repository of Haudenosaunee materials. The collection has since expanded to include archaeological and ethnological cultural heritage materials from North America, Central and South America, Africa, Oceania, Asia, and Europe. We are currently focusing on repatriation and cultural sensitivity efforts.
