Carleton College Art Collection
At approximately 1500 objects, the Carleton College Art Collection comprises about 700 prints, nearly 650 contemporary photographs, and paintings, sculptures and other artifacts of intrinsic beauty and technical interest. The collection was formed over decades by generous donations and occasional purchases. Through public exhibitions in the Art Gallery and the Gould Library, curatorial seminars and individual consultations, Carleton's art can be seen and studied.
