Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art
The Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art is one of the largest collections of Tibetan and Himalayan art in the Western world, perched on a hilltop in Staten Island's wooded Lighthouse Hill neighborhood. The museum was built in the 1940s to resemble a Tibetan mountain monastery and houses sculptures, paintings, and ritual objects from Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia, and China.
