Cedarhurst Center for the Arts, Performing arts center in Mount Vernon, United States
Cedarhurst Center for the Arts is a performing arts venue located on expansive grounds in Mount Vernon featuring exhibition spaces and performance halls. The facility includes indoor galleries and outdoor areas with sculpture installations and landscaped grounds.
The center was established to make a private art collection accessible to the public and support the region's cultural development. Over time, it evolved into a regional arts hub presenting diverse artistic disciplines and programming.
The center displays works by American artists from the 19th and early 20th centuries, with rotating exhibitions featuring both local and international art. Visitors encounter contemporary pieces across multiple galleries that reflect different perspectives and artistic approaches.
Visitors should wear comfortable clothing and footwear since the grounds feature pathways and grassy areas with uneven surfaces. Parking is available on the property, and many areas are accessible, though some sections require walking through outdoor spaces.
The property historically sheltered people traveling through an important network of hidden routes during a turbulent period in American history. This connection to the past gives the location deeper meaning beyond its current artistic role.
