Permanent Collection

The Metal Museum’s permanent collection numbers more than 3,000 objects – some as many as 500 years old. You can examine items ranging from contemporary American sculpture to gothic European lockboxes . . . from precious metal hollowware to custom-made knives . . . from a rooftop crucifix to a copper still. The collection continues to grow through gifts, purchases and bequests.

Artwork from the permanent collection is on display in the museum, in the library and throughout the grounds.
