Rockwell Museum

"My hope is that The Rockwell will be here for generations over the next 40 years to come, and an additional 40 after that."
-Kristin Swain, Rockwell Museum Executive Director

“One of my best memories would be Masks & Monologues. Just sitting outside on the balcony and watching High School Learning Center Students… and all of these supportive people helping them at that moment when they’re performing.”
–Dr. Constance Sullivan-Blum, Executive Director, The ARTS Council of the Southern Finger Lakes

“It takes a lot to make a community work. Obvious things like hospitals, schools… but you need a strong culture and you need a diverse culture, and I think The Rockwell is a real difference-maker in this community.”
–James Flaws, Former Corning Inc. Vice Chairman & CFO

“I care about The Rockwell because I feel like The Rockwell cares about its community. It’s just easy to want to work with, to be affiliated with or want to be a part of something that just gives back so much.”
-Dave Quackenbush, Lead Teacher at CPP High School Learning Center

“Instead of saying, “Here’s who we are, here’s who we think we’re going to be, and this is what we’re going to do,” The Rockwell is going out to the community and saying, “What do you want? What do you want us to be? How can we help you? That’s important.”
–Jim Pfiffer, Friends of the Chemung River Watershed

"We couldn't be more thrilled about starting this relationship with The Rockwell Museum."
