Welcome
Donate to The Westmoreland Stop for a moment and think about words like freedom, opportunity, diversity. They are words that paint a picture in your mind - words that describe the American experience. But words can’t tell the whole story. So we invite you to come see the art that gives those words meaning. See how the American experience is brought to life through the inspired eyes of artists at the Westmoreland Museum of American Art in Greensburg. Located only 35 miles east of Pittsburgh, it’s the only museum of American art in western Pennsylvania.

Featuring paintings and sculptures by such celebrated American artists as Winslow Homer, Mary Cassatt and Louis Comfort Tiffany, the Westmoreland captures the American spirit in a way few museums do. Take a look around our site to learn more about the Westmoreland. There are many programs and events for you to discover the heritage of our nation and of the Southwestern Pennsylvania region. Thanks for visiting wmuseumaa.org! Stop by again soon, online or in person.
