Yale University Art Gallery

The Yale University Art Gallery collects, preserves, studies, and presents art in all media, from all regions of the globe and across time. The museum's exceptional collection-numbering over 300,000 objects-is the core of its identity. It sustains and catalyzes all we do. 

Founded in 1832, the Gallery is the oldest university art museum in America. Today, it is the center for teaching, learning, and scholarship and is a preeminent cultural asset for Yale University, the wider academic community, and the public. The museum is open to all, free of charge, and is committed to engaging audiences through thoughtful, creative, and relevant exhibitions, programs, and publications.
