About Saint Mary's College Museum of Art

Visitors explore museum galleries exhibiting landscape paintings by William Keith, ethnographic materials, and works by Western artists. The museum presents student-curated shows such as "Fix Your Face: Representations of the Female Gaze," which examines how female photographers, painters, and printmakers reclaim agency through their work. The collection also includes sculptural stained glass and other media. Founded in 1934 by Brother Fidelis Cornelius Braeg around Keith's landscape paintings, the museum expanded significantly in 2011, increasing exhibition space by forty percent and adding storage facilities.
