The Buffalo AKG Art Museum (formerly the Albright-Knox Art Gallery) is one of the oldest museums dedicated to the art of our time, and the sixth oldest public art institution in the United States. It was founded in December 1862 as the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy with former President Millard Fillmore among its incorporators.

On November 4, 2019, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery temporarily closed its Elmwood Avenue campus to begin the construction phase of its AK360 Campus Development and Expansion Project. As part of the project, the museum will construct a signature new building on the north side of its campus and renovate its current facilities.

Albright-Knox Northland, a new project space at 612 Northland Avenue in Buffalo, opened on January 16, 2020. The new Buffalo AKG Art Museum is expected to open in early 2022 on the Elmwood Avenue campus.
