The Taft Museum of Art is a National Historic Landmark and one of the best small art museums in America. The museum is home to an extensive fine art collection of American and European paintings and decorative art.

Avid collectors of art, the Taft family donated their house designed in the Greek Revival style along with their admirable collection to the people of Cincinnati in 1927. The museum has since been home to works by grand masters such as Rembrandt, Goya, and Gainsborough, as well as the greatest Gothic ivory sculpture in America.

The museum offers a variety of activities, such as guided walking tours and gallery talks, live music shows and ‘Art in the Afternoon’, which features presentations of local artists’ works on Sunday afternoons.
