It's a wonderful, though rather small, museum of art. We even had a world class Andy Warhol exhibit here a couple of years ago. The museum has a main room (where my eldest daughter married), another largish room, and then several smaller rooms. Exhibits change about four times a year and are often fabulous...do you remember the light painting I showed awhile back? There are also lectures here (mostly about art and artists but sometimes the talks use the art as a jumping off point for other subjects...like social history.) Hope this helps.
Clever building reuse...Musee D'Orsay ala Brattleboro. The horse sculpture seems alive - quite a feat. (PS - thx for you comment on the girlfriends. I have a really hard time cropping INTO people, so I am so glad that this one seems OK.)

A beautiful restoration of a fantastic old station! I wonder what it looks like inside ...

I like the horsie. Neigh!!
Looks like a successful transformation.
Great to see this building kept and restored. Charming building. Chahhrrming.
This is beautiful.
What a great use of an old and unsed building. The transformation is wonderful. Got for you, good for me and good for Art---whoever he may be. LOL MB
What a wonderful building. I love that it's been transformed and still being enjoyed. What's up with the piece of lawn?
What a perfect use for a charming old building.
Excuse me-----------
Beautiful photo!
Sounds great Brattcat. Any chance of seeing the inside?
You have strange lawns in B., Vermont. :-)
I remember this wonderful building from another post, They had a very good idea transforming the old station in a museum,
It doth look like a Vermont museum should look!
The horse is fascinating...great energy wrapped up in all that metal and the sculptor certainly captured its "horseness."
Train stations make great museums. Selma has one too!
The US looks so pretty. And clean! Don't you guys have litter?
What a wonderful way to reuse a building. I maxed the photo to see that wonderful horse! Terrific sculpture

This is the type of place I love going to. Lovely historic building and that horse is something special.
Cheers.

Yes, but that curved piece of turf is bizarre. Sculpture? If so, very subtle.
Nice pictures I like museums, and this horse is beautiful!
Bye,

I tried to enlarge the photo but it didn't show... Would love to see the horse in detail!
