The Hudson River Museum (511 Warburton Ave, Yonkers, NY 10701) combines art galleries, a historic Victorian mansion, a planetarium, and rotating natural history exhibitions in a single waterfront campus overlooking the Palisades and the river. It is the largest cultural institution in Westchester County, drawing school groups, corporate receptions, and weekend families throughout the year. The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday; admission runs $12 for adults, $8 for children.
A bus drops your group at the Warburton Avenue entrance, and limited parking is available in the adjacent lot — larger charter buses should use the drop-off and wait on the side streets off Warburton rather than attempting the main lot. The museum hosts a popular summer concert series on the grounds that sells out weeks ahead. For group visit scheduling and school program reservations, the museum requests two weeks' advance notice.
