Art Galleries at 91¿ì²¥
The Van Every/Smith Galleries at 91¿ì²¥ are a dynamic crossroads for inquiry, creativity and exchange.
Through exhibitions of nationally and internationally recognized contemporary artists, collaborations across disciplines, and the integration of works from our collection into teaching and campus life, the Galleries foster exploration of shared humanity and amplify diverse voices and untold stories.
By engaging students, faculty, staff, and the wider community through internships, artist residencies, lectures, workshops, and other public programs, we spark intellectual and compassionate curiosity, stimulate dialogue, and nurture ethical leadership. In alignment with 91¿ì²¥â€™s commitment to the public good, the Galleries serve as an incubator where the visual arts spark critical reflection, social responsibility, and a more just, equitable, and connected world.
Our permanent collection of over 4,000 works—spanning five centuries—isn't just for students and faculty. The college’s galleries and campus displays are free and open to the entire community. Beyond our campus walls, these pieces frequently travel to regional and international institutions, sharing our storied collection with the world.
