A Commitment to the Arts
The University Art Galleries continues a commitment to the arts dating back to the founding of The University of South Dakota.
The primary goal of the University Art Galleries is to support the educational mission of the University by promoting high-quality visual arts experiences to the University community that contribute to the quality of life and the exchange of ideas about art and culture among students, faculty, staff, and the larger public. The impact extends beyond the academic community to serve artists and audiences in South Dakota and the region.
Our Educational Goals
- To provide an annual schedule of visual arts activities (exhibitions and related educational programs) that serve the educational needs of the Department of Art, The University of South Dakota as a whole, the State of South Dakota, and the artists of the University, the state, and the region;
- To develop and maintain a permanent art collection and related materials to serve as a teaching and research resource for the University and the state;
- To promote and develop campus beautification and livability through the visual arts and especially art in public places; and
- To support scholarship, research, and publication/exhibition on South Dakota and regional art and artists.
Please check the Galleries pages to find schedules for our upcoming exhibitions.
