Mission

History

English major Hannah Legris '08 participating in a faculty/student roundtable in the Sussel Gallery during the exhibition "Global Anxieties: Nine Perspectives on a Changing Planet," Spring 2009.

As an integral part of The College of Wooster, the primary mission of The College of Wooster Art Museum (CWAM) is to support and enhance the College’s goals of teaching, research, service, and global engagement through exhibitions, scholarship, and collection preservation.

Vision

The CWAM promotes campus-wide collaborations and interdisciplinary dialogue, and acts as a catalyst for creative engagement between students, faculty, and the College and regional and national audiences.

Value

Artists play a crucial role in all aspects of culture and society. By providing direct experiences with original works of art and experiential learning opportunities for students, the museum program encourages the development of critical thinking and visual literacy by actively connecting art to all kinds of human experiences within a social and historical context.
