Cayuga Museum of History and Art

We present changing exhibitions, public programs, and serve hundreds of researchers annually on three floors of the historic Willard-Case Mansion. We care for thousands artifacts, archives and photographs from Cayuga County and the Finger Lakes region as well as the complete archives and collections of the Case Research Lab, where Theodore Case invented the first commercially successful system of sound on film. Our mission is to provide a forum for the public to realize, interact with and appreciate Cayuga County’s shared past and unfolding present to help shape a better future.
