The Mills College Art Museum, housing the largest permanent collection of

any liberal arts college on the West Coast, is digitizing our collection

of works on paper, which includes notable examples of 19th and 20th

century photography, Japanese prints, Renaissance masters, and works by

early 20th century avant-garde artists.

 

Throughout the summer we are offering BEHIND THE SCENES tours of

collection highlights. Join us on the last Sunday of each month for guided

looks at selections from our unique holdings.
