Add a small memory of your last visit to SAMA to your shopping cart! SAMA brings celebrated American art to rural PA with everchanging exhibitions and award-winning educational programs and special events. With the visionary planning of Tina and Tom Thoburn and a dedicated steering committee, a donation of historic local lumber was secured to create Ligonier’s log cabin façade. The museum opened its doors in September 1997. The Donald M. Robinson Sculpture Park is added in 2018.
