WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Visitors are required to wear masks and observe social distancing. For the safety of our patrons and staff and out of respect for others, the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art requires that ALL patrons, while in the museum, wear a mask made of cloth, fabric, or other soft or permeable material, without holes, that covers the nose and mouth and surrounding areas of the lower face. Anyone who does not wear a face covering while in the museum will be asked to leave the premises.
We are committed to keeping our guests and staff safe and healthy. Here’s what else we are doing to make sure that happens:
- Maintenance of 3-foot or more distance between staff members and visitors and between separate visitor groups.
- No touch environment: doors opened by attendants via door-opener switch; no touchable/interactive exhibition or education elements; shop items handled by attendants only.
- Increased sanitation schedule.
- No touch hand sanitizer stations available throughout the museum.
If you are CSU Art and Art History (AAH) faculty and would like to bring a class, please email Theresa.McLaren@colostate.edu.
If you are a non-AAH instructor who would like to bring students to the museum, an art historian can be available to meet the class to address the art on view and in the museum collections. Please email Theresa.McLaren@colostate.edu to arrange a visit.
For class visits to collection storage, please email Suzanne.Hale@colostate.edu. You can also search our online collection here.

HARTFORD-TANDSTAD GALLERIES
The Hartford-Tandstad Collection came to the Gregory Allicar Museum of Art in 2014, approximately 200 works of art, including drawings, paintings, sculpture, and decorative arts, primarily dating from the late Renaissance through the 19th century. A selection of works is housed in three permanent galleries focused on themes of Global Encounters, Approaching Nature, and Dialogues with Power. Additional works from the collection are featured in rotating exhibitions.
THE GRIFFIN FOUNDATION GALLERY
In addition to our permanent collection installations, the Gregory Allicar Museum installs 7-10 temporary rotating exhibitions each year. The Griffin Foundation, our largest gallery, is reserved to continue this important aspect of our programming.
WORKS ON PAPER GALLERY
The Works on Paper Gallery features changing exhibitions, primarily drawn from our permanent collection of drawings, prints and photographs.
AMERICAS GALLERY
Building on Survivance, a semi-permanent exhibition curated by students in Dr. Emily Moore’s ART317: Native North American Art class, rotating displays of additional works add modern and contemporary art from the United States and from Latin America.
AFRICAN GALLERY
With creative diversity spanning over 50 countries and thousands of cultures, the arts of the African continent offer a window into unique local contexts and stylistic conventions. Such works of art promote the identity of the artists and cultures from which they originate, and highlight the visual differences found from one region to the next.
