Art Gallery & Facilities

The Ingram Art Gallery located in the lobby of the Ingram Arts Center serves as a place of community and education. Formed by four spaces throughout the building; main gallery, student gallery, hallway galleries, and upstairs gallery, it functions as a multi-purpose venue to showcase the strength of the visual and performing arts created both within and outside the walls of Ensworth. Throughout the year, several exhibitions are curated alongside the cooperation of professional artisans lending their works to the Ensworth community for a limited period of time and on view for students and visitors. Student performances, visiting artist talks, films, presentations, and more make up the wide-ranging utilization of the gallery. Special programming in this space brings real-world educational opportunities to the students, such as the Coffee Shop series - an Interdisciplinary Ted Talk like forum for artists from all areas and media, the ArtWalk - a building-wide art exhibtion for student engagement across campus, Spring and Fall Art Shows, Teaching Artists exhibitions, Singer-Songwriter Nights and more.
