Tour Time: 1:00 p.m.
Admission: $10.00
Located in the former St Francis Xavier Church (157 East Street) was established in response to over 70 churches closing inWestern New York. It is our intention to collect and display art objects from these closed places of worship and at the same time maintain and protect this architecturally significant building.

This gorgeous building provides a beautiful back-drop to the Dayton House. When you sit in the back yard, you see the clock tower. A climb up the tower is excellent exercise -- and the trip back down is a doozy! There is a crack in the north facing clock and if you look through it, you can see over Grand Island. Here's a shot taken from the sky lift we rented to paint the eaves and brackets for the front portion of the house.

If you have a chance to visit the museum, stop by to see the house...maybe we'll see you on Friday!
