==Building==
The museum was founded by banker Matthias Hallenback Arnot (1833 - 1910), who bequeathed to the City of Elmira his art collection and the building that housed it.〔("$600,000 to City of Elmira," ) ''The New York Times'', February 22, 1910.〕 The original Greek-Revival mansion was built in 1833 by his father, John Arnot, Sr. Matthias built the picture gallery addition in the 1890s, which featured extensive gas lighting and a large skylight.〔(Picture gallery ) from Finger Lakes Wine Country.〕 It is a rare example of a 19th-century private picture gallery that retains its original art collection.〔http://www.arnotartmuseum.org/ArnotCollection.asp?txtPHID3350=3878〕
A new wing was added to the museum in 1982.
