Head to the Allentown Art Museum of Lehigh Valley which was established in 1934 by well-loved impressionist painter Walter Emerson Baum, who was born in nearby Bucks county.
Baum and a group he organized founded both the museum as well as the Baum School of Art. The museum originally consisted of 70 impressionist paintings by local Pennsylvania artists and was held in the Hunsicker School. Later, the city gave the museum a permanent Federal-style house to display the collection.
Today the collection mostly consists of European paintings, a collection of textiles, works on paper, and a few other significant pieces.
