Welcome to the Tufts University Art Gallery.

Please visit our current exhibitions page to learn what's on view and our calendar to find out about what's going on in the Gallery.

The Tufts University Art Gallery animates the intellectual life of the greater university community through exhibitions and programs exploring new, global perspectives on art and on art discourse.

The Gallery fosters critical dialogue through exhibitions and programs that explore fresh interpretations and scholarship on art, that provide a forum for art produced internationally by emerging and mid-career artists, and that feature new work of established artists.

The Tufts University Art Gallery is dedicated to conceiving and presenting contemporary art exhibitions and educational programs that support the academic and civic ideals of the University. These ideals include excellence, intellectual and social engagement, and the balance of scholarship and teaching (including mentoring relationships). The University and the Gallery value a worldview that encompasses both local and global perspectives.

The gallery's major constituencies include current students, faculty, and staff on the Tufts Medford/ Somerville campus; the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, and the other Tufts schools; the greater university community of alumni, parents, donors, friends, and neighbors; the regional and New England arts community; and arts professionals (including exhibiting artists).
