The Rochester Museum of Fine Arts is the city of Rochester, New Hampshire's foremost visual arts initiative dedicated to enriching people's lives through the presentation of fine art. Founded in 2011, the museum prides itself on utilizing public spaces to make fine art easily accessible.

The museum occupies the first floor corridor of the Rochester Community Center at 150 Wakefield Street. Smaller exhibits are on view in the Rochester Public Library and City Hall. The permanent collection includes outstanding examples of contemporary works made by artists from around the world and encompasses a variety of media including painting, drawing, film, photography, and works on paper.

In addition, the Andrew Carnegie Gallery at the Public Library, and the Mayor Harvey E. Bernier Room at the Community Center feature temporary art exhibits showcasing emerging and seasoned artists on a bi-monthly basis.
