The Butler Institute is a wonderful collection of American Art, housed in a masterpiece of Beaux-Arts Architecture.  The building was erected in in 1919 and designed by McKim, Mead and White, a firm that created the structures for the Boston Public Library, Madison Square Garden, Washington Memorial Arch, the campuses of Columbia and Harvard, and the Century, Harvard, Metropolitan, and University clubs in New York.
