I found this place on the internet, thinking it was a nice art gallery. It was...but it was so much more! The house itself was a great surprise! The rooms are absolutely gorgeous, and furnished from the period. I definitely would recommend! We'll be back!

My friend and I went to the film festival in October 2011 at the Bundy Annex and had a great time! It's right in the back of the museum in another little building! Who knew! They were showing a week of horror movies from different eras starting as far back as the 1920's. It was a cool place with a cozy off-beat atmosphere! Would love to see more movies at the Bundy Annex! Loved this hidden gem!

This is an absolutely unique museum for the diversity of its exhibits and the architectural beauty of its setting. The tour was wonderfully curated and offered fascinating tidbits about history, art, architecture, and engineering. There is something for almost every interest. Don't miss this tour! We also learned about several events that the museum is host to that we would definitely come back for.

Just across the river Chenango, from the Greyhound Line Bus Station where we got out of the bus upon our arrival in Binghampton, in Main Street is located this beautiful museum.
There is a lot of fun here, interesting and educational things. We learned something about the Binghampton's local history in the Timeclock Exhibit. There is also a carriage house theater where You can see some classic movie. Beside this last one, we made a walk through a vintage barber shop .On the walls were hung, the vast collection of african masks and the sculptures on the tables and appropriate columns.
In fact, that is a really eclectic museum, and in the house that hosts all these interesting things,were made the first time-recording clocks, from what later became the famous IBM.
Small, but amazingly great museum.

This is a place with a beautiful art gallery area on two floors. I have seen old and modern styles there and always learn something new about the history of this place. Highly recommend a tour for the full story.

This is a gem of a historic house, lovingly restored. What makes the experience even more delightful is the intimate nature of the visit: we had a guided tour by Eric, whose enthusiasm for the house, and its history, was the icing on the proverbial cake.
The current owner has a huge collection of African art in the basement, in the process of being catalogued. Also not to be missed.

I love the house at 129 Main Street. My dad owned it for many years, He ran a fine arts store and print shop from that location. As a child, I was fascinated by the "old" things in the house... the hand carved woodworking throughout, the beautiful stained glass windows, lovely fireplaces throughout, etc.
I'm so grateful that the new owner has restored it to it's former glory. I was privileged to visit a couple of summers ago and was NOT disappointed! That house is a gem!

Neat old house with a connection to local business history. Funky and spooky. Friendly staff. Nice space for local artists to display. We will stop in again on First Fridays.
