Ithaca, Corning, and Lake George would be the first three places that would come to mind.

I think Ellicottville might make the list. It is ski country. I also second Watkins Glen; very nice area. Letchworth is worth a look -- it has a huge craft festival in summer, but is not a town to live in, it is our "grand canyon of the east" and really deserves the name. Lewiston - it has Artpark .
What is the art type?

You're right, how could I forget that. Based on what type of art, Lake George would probably not be a good place to be, then.
