The collections of the New York State Historical Association are showcased in the Fenimore Art Museum and comprise some of the best examples of American landscape, history, and genre paintings. The renowned Eugene and Clare Thaw Collection of American Indian Art and one of the nation's most comprehensive and significant folk art collections are some of the museum's remarkable assets.

DPCI implemented Drupal for the Fenimore Museum and its two sister organizations, the New York State Historical Association and the Farmers' Museum. The system allows the collective to share content and operate a distance learning portal for online educational programs.

Project highlights:

  • Drupal's multi-site administration capabilities allow NYSHA, Fenimore, and Farmers' to share content among the sites and sections in the appropriate theme. The system will auto-select the appropriate theme based on taxonomy, URL, or domain.
  • Unified administration for all sections and sites for NYSHA, Fenimore, and Farmers'
  • Extensive e-commerce capabilities integrated with an existing point of sale system
