From January 2024 through March 2025, Krannert Art Museum is undergoing renovation to the Kinkead Pavilion portion of the building. Please enter through the Peabody Drive (south) entrance to the Main Lobby or find the accessible entrance to the Link Gallery near Siebel Center for Design.
The museum presents exhibitions, educational programs, and special events to approximately visitors each year. Our innovative programming and vital artistic collaborations regularly engage diverse audiences and build public engagement, resulting in a web of interaction among artists, curators, students, and visitors in the museum space.
KAM is nationally recognized for its extensive collections of ancient Andean, European, and American art, including 20th century paintings, photographs, and works on paper. The museum's award-winning gallery Encounters: The Arts of Africa celebrates the global reach and contemporary relevance of the arts of Africa and its diasporas. These holdings, combined with collections of Asian, ancient Mediterranean, and medieval art, make KAM a premier cultural destination in the State of Illinois.
