Sustaining and Expanding Opportunities

The Art History Program creates an intellectual haven for the creative and professional advancement of our students to prepare them to enter a wide variety of occupations. We are successful in part because of the financial generosity of our alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and community partners. 

Gifts to the Art History Student Research and Travel Fund provide financial support for our advanced students conducting research in museums outside of the Washington, D.C., area. Students will work with real objects in world-class museums, such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and will gain the opportunity to network with internationally recognized experts. These experiences provide our
students with extensive career opportunities, ever vital to the competitive job market. 

Please consider becoming our partner in education and supporting our talented and deserving students.
