Woodmere Art Museum is an art museum located in the Chestnut Hill neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It has a collection of over 8,000 works of art focused on Philadelphia artists. Charles Knox Smith bequeathed his Woodmere estate and 600 pieces of art to be used as a museum after his death in 1916. The museum was founded in 1940 as the Woodmere Art Gallery with one building, Charles Knox Smith Hall, and six acres of sculpture garden. The museum was significantly expanded in 2025 with the purchase and renovation of the nearby Frances M. Maguire Hall of Art and Education, and four acres of sculpture garden.
