Throughout the year, the school hosts exhibits of work by undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, local and visiting artists. From contemporary paintings to prints, photography to ceramics, graphic design to sculpture, you will see and experience innovative work that brings a wide range of perspectives and touches on important social themes.

The Alfred C. Glassell Gallery is the finest gallery for contemporary art in Baton Rouge and allows the School of Art to bring the most provocative and timely artwork to the region. Its architecturally impressive space reminds one of the best and “hippest” New York galleries. In addition to a primary on-campus gallery located in the Foster Hall, the campus and Baton Rouge boast several exhibition spaces regularly used by the school to host events. Lagniappe is an annual juried portfolio featuring graduate printmakers. Gallery 229 is an exhibition space available for student work and guest photographers. The main campus library includes dedicated gallery space for the printmaking concentration. Hill Memorial Library, also on campus, has an exhibition program that includes historic and contemporary exhibitions of artists' books, photographs and printed ephemera. The Student Union Gallery shows student and faculty work, as well as traveling exhibits. The school’s Sculpture Park, conceived and created as a collaboration between faculty and students, has proudly exhibited the work of regionally and nationally recognized artists. The LSU Museum of Art and the Alfred C. Glassell, Jr. Exhibition Gallery at the Shaw Center for the Arts exhibits the work of national and internationally acclaimed artists.
