Teaching & Learning

Tufts University Art Galleries (TUAG) provides a space where visual arts and learning intersect at every level. Presenting world-class contemporary art and innovative programming in galleries across two campuses, TUAG creates a dynamic classroom where students across disciplines can learn directly from artists and objects.

Student Opportunities

As an academic art center, TUAG serves as an open learning space where undergraduate and graduate students from across the university can engage with world-class contemporary art and learn from artists, curators, and other art professionals.

There are also many opportunities for professional development available to undergraduate and graduate students at both our Medford and Boston locations, which are open to all students, regardless of major.

Faculty Connections

There are many ways—with no set formula—for faculty to get involved with the Galleries. You can visit with your class, arrange a tour, or develop a class session to co-teach with the Manager of Academic Programs. As exhibitions rotate, there are opportunities to offer scholarly expertise by contributing to interpretative materials for exhibits or to participate in or co-host a public program in conjunction with the exhibitions. If you have an idea you’d like to discuss, please contact contact our Manager of Academic Programs.
