Welcome to the Cahoon Museum!
The mission of the Cahoon Museum of American Art is to promote love and enjoyment of the visual arts through exhibits, educational programs, and continuing development of its permanent collection. The museum both celebrates the legacy of Cape Cod folk artists Ralph and Martha Cahoon, displaying their art and preserving the historic building that was their home and studio, and embraces the full vitality of American art with emphasis on past and present artists of Cape Cod and the Northeast.

The Little Gallery:
May 14 - June 30, 2013
Works by Milton Teichman
The Little Gallery is devoted to small bodies of work by exceptional contemporary artists. Works are for sale.
Milton Teichman, a local artist from Brewster, is exhibiting his paintings and scupltures in The Little Gallery. Milton paints quasi-representational landscapes as well as nonobjective paintings and collages which show his continued interest in the interplay of form and space. In his three-dimensional work, he now focuses on table-size sculptures in wood, sheet brass, fired clay, and bronze. Many of the pieces reflect the influence of the primitive art of Mexico. |
