The Hyde Collection combines the intimacy of an historic house with the sophistication of a larger art museum complex. The Museum's founders, Louis and Charlotte Hyde, amassed a permanent collection consisting of approximately 4,000 items ranging from works on paper, sculpture, furniture, and tapestries to Old Master paintings (Botticelli, Rembrandt and Rubens), important American artists (Bellows

, Eakins, Hassam, Homer, Vedder and Whistler) and Modern and Contemporary works (Kelly, Warhol, Albers and more). The Hyde Collection strives to be widely recognized as one of the preeminent small fine arts museums in the Northeastern United States, celebrated for its distinguished collections of European and American art, old masters and modern and contemporary art, dynamic educational and cultural programming, energetic collaboration with other forward-thinking organizations, and the memorable experiences it consistently creates for visitors in its welcoming and inclusive environment.

From a young visitor crossing the bridge from South Glens Falls to explore the galleries on his own, to a dedicated collector and supporter, Tobin Sparling’s connection to The Hyde Collection spans a lifetime.

Tobin shared that even as a teenager he felt welcomed at The Hyde and encouraged to engage with art on his own terms.

That early experience sparked a passion that led to a career in rare books, art history, and academia, as well as an extraordinary collection of 19th-century French prints. Today, that collection lives on at The Hyde through multiple generous donations, enriching our galleries for all to enjoy.

Stories like Tobin’s remind us of the impact early access to the arts can have.
Make your gift to our Spring Appeal today. Your support helps expand education programs and ensures access to the arts for all. Make your donation HERE: https://www.hydecollection.org/donate/

Don’t miss the conclusion of this year’s The Metropolitan Opera Live in HD series this Saturday (5/30) at 12:30 pm!

The season comes to a close with American composer Gabriela Lena Frank’s first opera, “El Último Sueño de Frida y Diego,” a magical-realist portrait of Mexico’s painterly power couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera.

Fashioned as a reversal of the Orpheus and Euridice myth, the story depicts Frida, sung by leading mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard, leaving the underworld on the Day of the Dead and reuniting with Diego, portrayed by baritone Carlos Álvarez. The famously feuding pair briefly relive their tumultuous love, embracing both the passion and the pain before bidding the land of the living a final farewell.
