Our Mission

The Bingham Art Gallery is an exhibition space and living laboratory for contemporary art practice and interpretation. Central to the interdisciplinary curriculum of the School of Visual Studies, the gallery provides a platform for critical thinking across media, disciplines, cultures, and contexts. Through the exhibition of a diverse array of artwork created by student, emerging, established, and visiting artists, the gallery:  

· provides the SVS, university, and local communities with opportunities for direct involvement and exchange with the visual arts;

· informs and deepens the curriculum taught in SVS; and

· serves as a training ground for students as emerging arts professionals in the arts economy.

The Gallery cultivates an academic environment that nurtures creativity, curiosity, and intellectual growth.
