Centered in the heart of the City of Buchanan, the Buchanan Museum of Fine Art has emerged as Southwestern Michigan's largest single repository of American and European works of art.

Founded by the citizens of the City of Buchanan and developed as a result of countless hours of volunteer efforts of these same citizens, the Buchanan Museum of Fine Art is collecting activities specific to the acquisition of historically important works of American and European art objects. Specific to these collecting activities, the Museum has concentrated its efforts on the conservation, preservation and exhibition of important works spanning the previous two hundred years of art history. To that end, the Buchanan Museum's collection now includes many historic paintings, as well as drawings, etchings, chromolithographs, serigraphs and poster art contributing to the development and fruition of a number of historically important art movements.
