 Tarble Arts Center

 

Tarble Arts CenterThe Tarble Arts Center is used by the department for its exhibition, educational and guest artist programming. Built in 1981 with an expansion in 2004, this 18,000-square foot facility has contributed greatly to increasing the university’s visibility at the state and national levels. The main gallery space features outstanding natural, indirect and adjustable lighting that, when coupled with movable wall panels, offers interesting arrangements of intimate, private spaces or an open appearance with arrangements for exhibiting larger scale art works. A smaller gallery space is used for exhibitions not requiring or needing large main gallery. The 2004 addition included construction of a second smaller gallery space specifically designed to accommodate new approaches and new media, including digital/electronic displays and installations.

As many as 17 different visual art exhibits are presented each year at the Tarble Arts Center. Departmental exhibitions Tarble Arts Centerinclude the annual faculty, undergraduate and graduate exhibitions. In addition, The Tarble Arts Center is utilized for many campus and community events; the artwork on exhibit gets broad university and community exposure. The Tarble Arts Center is an exceptional facility and complements the Department of Art & Design 's programs very effectively.
