Permanent display
The American Wing at 100
from 5 Nov 2024 at The Met Fifth Avenue
· New York
The American Wing at 100 marks a century since the opening of one of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's most beloved galleries. This milestone exhibition reflects on 100 years of collecting, displaying, and interpreting American art — from colonial-era furniture and silver to paintings, sculpture, and decorative arts spanning the nation's history.
Visitors are invited to explore the Wing's rich legacy and consider how its collections have shaped our understanding of American identity, craftsmanship, and creativity across four centuries.
