Currier Museum of Art
The Currier maintains an astounding permanent collection of works by European and American masters, among them Claude Monet, Edward Hopper, Winslow Homer, John Marin, Andrew Wyeth, and Childe Hassam, and it presents changing exhibits of contemporary art. The museum also arranges guided tours of the nearby Zimmerman House, completed in 1950, and the nearby Kalil House, built five years later. These are New England's only Frank Lloyd Wright–designed residences open to the public. Wright called these sparse, utterly functional living spaces "Usonian," a term he used to describe several dozen similar homes based on his vision of distinctly American architecture.
