Cranbrook Art Museum
Cranbrook Art Museum is situated on a lush, 319-acre campus of world-renowned architecture, sculpture, and gardens. Described by architecture critic Wolf von Eckardt as “the most enchanted and enchanting setting in America,” in 1989 it was designated a National Historic Landmark. The Art Museum features year-round, changing exhibitions of modern and contemporary art and design, as well as guided tours of the Collections Wing, showcasing our collection of nearly 6,000 artworks. From May to November, book a tour of Saarinen House—our campus’s Art Deco historic home—and Frank Lloyd Wright’s nearby Smith House, which Wright called “my little gem.”
Cranbrook Art Museum’s collections document outstanding examples of art, architecture, craft, and design from the 20th and 21st centuries, with a special interest in recognizing the history and innovations of Cranbrook and the achievements of its artists.
