Venue Details
Created in 1996, Newcomb Art Museum (NAM) of Tulane University builds on the Newcomb College (1886-2006) legacy of education, social enterprise, and artistic experience. NAM develops exhibitions and programs that feature artists and collections that speak to the most recent developments in national and global contemporary art. With additional support from faculty in various departments across Tulane University, NAM’s interdisciplinary programs and exhibitions explore critical issues in contemporary art, craft, and design as well as matters of sociocultural and civic import.
Currently, NAM cares for a permanent collection of over 8,000 objects that includes art from 1889 to the present. The most notable collection is composed of Newcomb Pottery, which was celebrated for its distinctiveness in the early twentieth century. The collections are utilized to demonstrate the distinctiveness of its institutional history as well as the arts ecosystem of New Orleans and the Gulf South. Collectively, the works in the museum’s gallery and throughout Tulane’s public spaces reflect the university’s effort to provide the public access to art.
