Roslyn, NY 11576
The Nassau County Museum of Art (NCMA) is located 20 miles east of New York City on the former Frick Estate, Clayton, a 145-acre property in Roslyn Harbor in the heart of Long Island’s Gold Coast. The museum's Mansion, named in honor of art collectors and philanthropists Arnold A. Saltzman and his wife Joan, is a three-story Georgian-style mansion that exemplifies Gold Coast architecture of the late 19th century. In addition to the Mansion, NCMA, which receives nearly 200,000 visitors each year, includes The Manes Family Art & Education Center, opened in 2017, as well as a Sculpture Park, a Formal Garden, rare specimen trees and marked walking trails. NCMA annually presents major rotating exhibitions, many of which are original to the museum and are organized by the museum’s own curatorial staff. NCMA's 145 acres hold one of the largest publicly accessible sculpture gardens on the East Coast. Nearly 40 sculptures are sited on the property to interact with the natural environment.

Not too impressed with this year's lights, last year was much better... still a good picnic spot for summertime when the weather is nice. The drive through with lanterns are skippable, check...
