Where: American Folk Art Museum
2 Lincoln Square
New York, NY
Who: All ages
When: Through September 13, 2026
In conjunction with the Nation's 250th birthday, the current exhibit, Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States, at the American Folk Art Museum looks at how patriotism is explored through art. In addition to paintings and portraits, weather vanes, quilts, and more are part of the exhibit. Artists represented include Grandma Moses, Edward Hicks, and more, as well as some unknown artists. While some of the works are meant to celebrate this country, others are meant to represent protest, grief or other things.
And that's our view. For more about the exhibit or the American Folk Art Museum in general, visit folkartmuseum.org/exhibitions/folk-nation. There is no fee required to visit the museum.
Tune in tomorrow for Theater Thursday.
