MISSION
The Picker Art Gallery at Colgate
University seeks to engage the imaginations, stimulate the minds,
and captivate the eyes of its visitors - students, faculty, staff,
community members, and travelers alike. It aims to serve as a
laboratory for the exploration and presentation of new ideas about
and related to art; as a forum for interdisciplinary collaborations
grounded in visual understanding; as a beacon of excellence in its
exhibitions, projects, and publications; and as a sanctuary for the
contemplation and enjoyment of art.
ACTIVITIES
Housed on one floor of the Charles A. Dana Center for the Creative
Arts, a distinguished Paul Rudolph building (1964-66) on the Colgate
University campus, the Picker Art Gallery holds a permanent
collection of more than 10,000 objects representing a broad range of
artistic mediums, national schools, and historical periods. It
presents a regular schedule of changing exhibitions, lectures,
concerts, and other special events, all open to the public and free
of charge. We hope you'll visit!
