Georgetown University Art Galleries

The Georgetown University Art Galleries — which stand on the homeland of the Nacotchtank and their descendants, the Piscataway Conoy people — encompass two distinct exhibition venues: the Maria & Alberto de la Cruz Art Gallery and the Lucille M. & Richard F.X. Spagnuolo Art Gallery. During the academic year, the Galleries present exhibitions featuring works by highly acclaimed professional artists, studio art faculty, and graduating art majors and host a variety of innovative, interdisciplinary public programs. The Galleries seek to engage members of the University community, Georgetown and surrounding neighborhoods, and the Washington, D.C region. All exhibitions and programs are free.

The Georgetown University Art Galleries ask critical questions that promote cross-disciplinary learning, inspire dialogue, and challenge assumptions through changing exhibitions and programs for a variety of audiences.

By placing great art and socially-engaged artists at the center of critical conversations we aim to promote cross-cultural understanding, advance social justice, broaden global consciousness and create opportunities for our audiences to not only look at art, but also to have meaningful and memorable experiences. We hope you will join us for unique exhibitions, performances, and public programs.
