The Heckscher Museum of Art is an educational institution cooperatively managed by a private, non-profit, educational corporation in partnership with the Town of Huntington, which owns the Museum facility and the surrounding park. The Museum's mission is "to engage people of Long Island, New York, and the nation through a stimulating and inspiring program of exhibitions and educational offerings dedicated to a full understanding of the visual arts. It is the duty of the Museum to conserve, interpret, present, refine, and expand the Permanent Collection in a manner consistent with the highest standards of the museum profession for the benefit of current and future generations."
Use of the Museum is a benefit of August Heckscher Society membership and Corporate Partnership. It is the policy of The Heckscher Museum of Art to make its facilities available to outside organizations for purposes in keeping with the Museum's mission in order to introduce the Museum to new audiences and to serve Museum constituents and the community. Such usage by non-profit and profit-making organizations is allowed under certain conditions, rules, and procedures.
The Museum is not available to individuals for private social functions; for religious, political, or commercial events; or for any other purpose that, in the Museum's judgment, would be detrimental to the Museum's status as a non-partisan, non-profit, educational agency.
Scheduling of any event would be dependent upon the exhibition schedule, availability of the Museum galleries, and the event framework. A Facility Use Application and Hold Harmless would need to be completed and Certificate of Insurance provided in order to schedule an event.
