Can I check my coat/backpack/umbrella, etc.? 

The Rockwell does not have a formal coat check and we do ask that backpacks, umbrellas and other bulky items not be taken through the galleries to protect the artworks. If possible, please leave any additional belongings in your vehicle; if on foot, limited storage is available at the admission desk. 

Will the Museum hold any events this summer? 

Yes, the Museum is in the planning stages of reinvigorating our popular event series. Browse our events listing for fun and educational experiences as they arise.

I’m not able to visit the Museum in person. Can I see your collection online? 

Yes, many objects in The Rockwell’s collection are available to browse via our eMuseum. 

Can I use the restroom? 

The restroom is available only to paying visitors of the Museum. A public restroom is also available at the Corning Information Center in Centerway Square (just 1 block away from the Museum).  

Where can I park?
