Get into Museums from across the World!

It's off to New York! As far as traditional culture capitals go, it doesn't get much better than Manhattan, while for willing travellers life just gets better and better in the good old U. S. of A. You just have to visit Houston Museum Natural Science in Texas, first opened in 1909 and now one of the hottest attractions in the United States. Even if you stay put in NYC, you can look out for The Empire State Plaza Art gallery, Albany, New York. With a focus on Abstract Expressionist, Lyrical Abstraction and Colour Field works by mid-twentieth century artists Jackson Pollock, Alexander Calder and Robert Motherwell, its clout as a collection of contemporary American art is unparalleled.

Your mind will boggle at the museums Harrisburg, Pennsylvania has to offer. Indeed, you may wish to start with the William Penn Memorial Museum, or State Museum. From the state’s beginnings in this Quaker’s hands thanks to a Charter granted by England's seventeenth century King Charles II, to today, nowhere else will you find an eighteen foot, two ton statue of Penn himself! Alternatively, marvel at all the other, military and industrial exhibits. Other North American sights and sounds include such galleries as the Red Dot Fine art gallery, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
