40 YEARS OF ART AT THE MUSCARELLE
As we celebrate 40 years since our founding in 1983, explore the story of art at the Muscarelle and William & Mary. From the origins of the collection nearly 300 years ago, through the establishment of the Museum in the 1980s, to our exciting next chapter as we prepare to re-open the Muscarelle in the Martha Wren Briggs Center for the Visual Arts, this exhibition spans our past, present and future. Learn more about our most significant works of art and the people whose vision, perseverance and generosity established and sustained a home for art at William & Mary.
The Williamsburg Regional Library Gallery at the Stryker Center is open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Docent-led tours of the exhibition will be available Wednesdays from 2-4 PM and Fridays from 10 AM to noon. Other tours provided by request.
Please note the Stryker Center is closed on Labor Day, Sept. 4, as well as Oct. 13.
