Review & FAQ:

The Wharton Esherick Museum celebrates the life and work of American sculptor and design artist Wharton Esherick, known as a major figure of the 20th-century Studio Furniture Movement. The 12-acre museum campus, which has been designated as a National Historic Landmark for Architecture, converts Esherick's hilltop studio and estate into a full museum experience for visitors, preserving more than 300 of his most significant works. Guests can tour the museum as part of guided tour experiences, which require advance reservations. In addition to Esherick's studio, museum visitors can explore his 1928 Expressionist garage, converted into a visitor center, and the Chester County Landmark Diamond Rock Schoolhouse, which served as an early painting studio for the artist.
