About the galleries

Since opening in its current location in 2005, the Galleries have served as a vibrant site of exploration, participation, and learning. Through dynamic curatorial projects and public programming, Herron's galleries continue to be an innovative educational forum for diverse audiences by providing direct and meaningful encounters with contemporary art and artists.

Visit the Galleries year-round. All exhibitions and talks are free and open to the public, and the buildings and galleries are wheelchair accessible.

Exhibiting contemporary art since 1902

With over 6,000 square feet of combined exhibition space, the Galleries at Herron School of Art and Design showcase the artwork of emerging and established contemporary artists and designers and the work of Herron's acclaimed faculty, distinguished alumni, and students.

Herron's galleries and visiting artist talks are made possible by the school's generous donors. Herron is grateful for the philanthropy that assures that gallery programming remains robust. In recognition of their devotion to visual art, the names of our donors are associated with the spaces and the visiting artist events they have supported.
