The Union Galleries in the new Student Union offers a unique collection that features a variety of media, which is on display year round. The Union Galleries have served the community since 1973 by exposing students and employees of The University of Arizona and off campus visitors to original art by regional and nationally prominent artists. The galleries heighten awareness of both current and ongoing issues and creative processes, which encourages open dialogue and personal introspection. Students are welcome to work directly with the Union Galleries Curator to gain experience in hands on gallery management.
