An exciting addition to the New England museum landscape, the Westerly Museum of American Impressionism (WMAI) is currently being constructed in the seaside town of Westerly, Rhode Island. Established by philanthropists and art collectors Thomas P. and Cynthia D. Sculco, the museum will be dedicated to the research and exhibition of artworks created by American Impressionists from the 1880s – 1920s.

Located on Watch Hill Road overlooking Babcock Cove, the WMAI will be situated within a picturesque Rhode Island setting. Within the museum’s galleries, visitors will discover a collection of vibrant artworks created by esteemed artists such as Childe Hassam, Jane Peterson, Louise Upton Brumback, Robert Reid, and Charles Courtney Curran. Many works capture the essence of notable scenic locales in New England and along the East Coast.
