The recently renovated Donald and Linda Silpe Gallery is located in Taub Hall, the main facility of the Hartford Art School. The primary mission of the Silpe Gallery is to provide a showcase for student work and provide students with the experience of preparing and installing an exhibition. Student exhibitions are scheduled throughout the academic year and include MFA thesis, BFA, departmental, and individual as well as group shows sponsored by the Hartford Art School. In addition, the gallery hosts many special events and visiting artist lectures during the year. The Silpe Gallery is also available to other organizations and individuals on a selective basis for purposes that are compatible with or enhance the mission of the Hartford Art School.
