Decades later, the Museum's mission remains to provide people with access to original works of art and the intellectual and emotional stimulation and inspiration they provide. On May 25, 2013, the Museum went back to Sarah's original vision of granting free admission to the public year-round. Joslyn offers an important permanent collection of art from antiquity to the present, substantive exhibitions, educational outreach programs, and free community events.
