Located in the center of the Art Building is the Fort Lewis College Art Gallery. The Gallery brings local, regional and national exhibitions to the campus, providing students and classes with an important research tool. The Art Gallery is part of the educational program at Fort Lewis College. The gallery provides exposure to diverse works of art and ranges of artistic expression representing multiple art forms, styles, periods, purposes, and locales. Through its exhibition of contemporary art, the gallery explores the artistic process as well as its products. The gallery works in conjunction with the art program and other academic programs to show how art functions in a cultural context, whether contemporary or historical. Many student shows are also scheduled throughout the year, including the Senior Art Majors Exhibition and the Annual Juried Student Exhibition. In addition to the main gallery, students also exhibit work in the "Exit Gallery", an intimate exhibition space located in the southwest corner of the art building.
