The Everson Museum of Art is a museum in downtown Syracuse, New York, housed in a building designed by I.M. Pei and opened in 1968. It was the first museum Pei designed, and the brutalist concrete structure is considered a significant work in its own right. The permanent collection holds around 10,000 works, with particular strength in American art and one of the largest ceramic art collections in the United States, spanning studio pottery, decorative objects, and functional ware.

Visitors move through more than 20 exhibitions each year, covering painting, sculpture, works on paper, and ceramics drawn from the permanent holdings alongside temporary shows. The building's four gallery wings surround a central court, giving the layout a clear internal logic. On site, Louise, the museum's cafe, serves a locally sourced menu on functional ceramic pieces from the collection. Entry tickets cover general admission to all permanent galleries and current exhibitions, with wheelchair access throughout. Tickets are available for New York attractions and cultural venues across the state.
