    Upstairs bedroom

    This house isn't very big or have any of Edward Hopper's paintings, but it is an interesting glimpse into his youth that you can see how the quiet suburbs spoke to his figurative works. There is a short video and some of his early possessions and photographs, then a contemporary art exhibit, and upstairs there's one room decorated for how it would have been during Hopper's lifetime. The artist Tomokazu Matsuyama reinterpreted Hopper's work which was an interesting visual experience. There was no tour, but the employee did give us some additional information in between other people coming in to pay. She seemed very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Hopper and explained the house was in disrepair after Hopper's death and restored by a nonprofit. It's a pretty cheap self-guided experience but cool information to gather. The gift shop is minimal and parking is paid on street, but it's a cute street, so you might as well walk around a little after. For art lovers, it's a neat little spot to visit, and I'm glad it has been preserved. It's worth stopping by if you're a fan of Hopper's.

    This is a sparkling hidden gem, tucked away in Edward Hopper's birthplace, the village of Nyack. Located about 15 miles (a 35-50 minute commute) from Manhattan, it would make for a great half day or full day trip from the city! This home was built and owned by Hopper's maternal grandparents. It was in danger of demolition until the village worked to collectively buy and restore the property. It opened as a museum in 2017. The museum boasts many early boyhood sketches. Hopper's bicycle is on display. Many personal artifacts are on view, including journals and painting/tool kits. You can view his bedroom, arranged as he would have had it, with an inspiring view of the Hudson. There are also works by his wife, Jo, who was a major influence on his career, and a key to his success. The staff here are so enthusiastic, kind, and knowledgeable. I could sense the passion they felt about the subject. There is also a great, informative film. The info boards are clean, clear, and concise. There is also a map and QR code to lead you around Hopper's Nyack, where you can see places important to him and places he painted. Nyack is a very walkable downtown, and the house is near many shops and restaurants. Entry fee is reasonable. I donated extra. The gift shop has some nice items! The Whitney has an extensive Hopper exhibit on view through March 5, 2023. And even after this is over, the Whitney holds a huge Hopper collection on view regularly. NYU maintains Hopper's NYC studio, though it has recently been closed due to COVID. It would be easy for a Hopper fan to plan a long weekend or a couple of days visiting these various sites and learning more about the artist (he was 6'7!). I can't rave enough about this museum or the staff. A PBS documentary comes out later this year and the preview I saw was wonderful.

    You can go up to his bedroom and look out the windows as he did every day of his impressionable years.
