Description

On the campus of the University of Las Vegas (UNLV) is the Donna Beam Fine Art Gallery, a gallery featuring contemporary art done by regionally and nationally acclaimed artists including faculty. A main component of the gallery's focus is centered on two ideas ingrained in the university's mission, "critical thinking" and "aesthetic sensitivity." This is achieved through three principles of "content, concept, and craft" where each piece of art is carefully selected for its representation of contemporary art among all different facets of media. The gallery has been around the university ever since its establishment in 1969, moving to its current home at the Alta Ham Fine Arts Building in 1981, where it has since been renovated and renamed.
