About The Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art
The Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art sits in two fieldstone buildings designed to resemble a Himalayan monastery, creating a unique cultural backdrop for exhibitions and events on Staten Island. Located at 338 Lighthouse Avenue, this historic venue hosts Tibetan art collections, wellness programs, and community events such as the Losar Tibetan New Year celebration. The site is active for private event rentals, offering a distinctive space for gatherings, lectures, and cultural programming.
Whether you’re planning a visit to the museum’s ongoing exhibitions or coordinating an event, we’ve got you covered with practical details on seating, parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining options.
Transit and parking are straightforward: limited free on-street parking is available in the surrounding residential area. For public transport, take the S74 bus from the Staten Island Ferry at St. George to Lighthouse Avenue, then walk uphill for about 5–10 minutes to the museum.
