Skidmore College

Fodor's Review:

This four-year coeducational college, founded in 1903, sponsors year-round cultural events and entertainment, and is the summer home of the New York State Writer's Institute. The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery (518/580-8080. tang.skidmore.edu. $5 suggested donation) contains galleries large enough for oversize works and innovative installations, a 150-seat presentation room, and multimedia classrooms for lectures and film screenings. The rooftop is the setting for summer concerts. The museum is open Tuesday through Friday 10-5 and weekends noon-5.
