Visitors to the Allen Memorial Art Museum (AMAM) reflect on the great works of art they’ve seen following a self-guided tour. The museum, which opened its doors in 1917, is primarily a teaching institution, founded to support students’ educational experiences at Oberlin College. It is recognized today as one of the five best college and university art museums in the country.
With some 14,000 works of art—including paintings, sculpture and decorative arts—ComplexArt+Design magazine recently joined the list of admirers by naming the AMAM tops in its list of the 20 best college art museums. Perhaps best of all: it’s free.
Oberlin is a place of
intense energy and creativity,
built on a foundation of
academic, artistic, & musical excellence.
With its longstanding commitments to
access, diversity, & inclusion,
Oberlin is the ideal laboratory in which to study and design the world we want.
Oberlin has been on the front lines
of changing the world for almost two centuries,
often serving as the prototype for progress even in the face of strong resistance.
