Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center

Really lovely look into the early life of Edward Hopper. Simple, small museum with insights into his family, his bedroom, and views of Nyack. I enjoyed the afternoon light through his bedroom window, and the photos that compare the buildings in his paintings with how they look today. As a big fan of the artist i am very pleased with this little museum. The staff was also great.

Great gem in Nyack NY.. most wonderful information about Edward Hopper one of the best American artist I believe of all time!
This is his family home and it’s mostly the history about his younger years and how he started to become the artist that he was. In the summer, they actually have fabulous events in their backyard that have jazz performers come from all over to play at in a very casual and lovely environment.!
If you want a day trip and get out of Manhattan, this is the best place to go. It’s a lovely town and this is Edward Hopper house is the best. !

Best history lesson I’ve had all year. Thanks to Eileen. We loved our visit.

Loved it here!!!! I was so glad to finally make it to the Hopper museum to learn more about his early life and more interestingly, his wife!!!! It was so nice to meet Eileen, the tour guide who was so kind and engaging, showing us around and giving us extra details.

I'm a believer in serendipity, or maybe it's synchronicity. November 18th, 2022, my life changed forever when I saw the Hopper exhibit at the Whitney in NYC. I was always enamored by Nighthawks and the like, but seeing all of the works/sketches up close, was something else.

I was told many years ago to take the train up to Nyack and see the Hopper house and the foliage, on November 17th, 2023 I did so. I was not disappointed. The admission ticket allows you to roam the house freely, but Eileen (who greeted me when I walked in) was a wealth of information and gave me my own personal tour. We spoke at length about many things and I spent over two hours there devouring all I could, especially information on Edward's wife Josephine Verstille Hopper (who's been neglected over the years - hopefully that will change). Eileen was kind enough to annotate a map of the places in Nyack that inspired Hopper paintings. I visited them as well.

I will be back in the summer time for their storied Jazz Nights in the garden behind the house. If you love Hopper be sure to check this off your bucket list. I'm glad I did.
