About Susquehanna Art Museum

The Susquehanna Art Museum (SAM) is a non-profit art museum located in the Midtown neighborhood of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the state's capital. Founded in 1989 by a group of central Pennsylvania art educators, it is the only dedicated art museum in Central Pennsylvania. SAM operates as a non-collecting institution, meaning its galleries display a rotating schedule of borrowed and traveling exhibitions rather than a permanent collection. It is a member of the North American Reciprocal Museum Association.

After more than two decades of nomadic operation across a series of temporary spaces, SAM opened its permanent home in January 2015 at 1401 North Third Street, occupying an adaptively reused 1916 bank building expanded and renovated by the Philadelphia architectural firm EwingCole.
