Mills Art Museum Gift Fund

Founded in 1925, the Mills College Art Museum (MCAM) is an innovative center of creativity that enriches the Northeastern University Global Network through unique on-the-ground and digital experiences, leveraging technology to erase boundaries, and centering creative voices from across the globe.

With over 12,000 objects, the collection—which is used in exhibitions and loaned to other museums—has significant strengths in works on paper, photography, California and Asian ceramics, and important works by major women artists.

As an academic museum, MCAM is a space for interdisciplinary learning, professional experience for students, and cutting-edge faculty collaborations. Exhibitions are focused primarily on contemporary artistic practices, with an emphasis on commissioning artists to create and exhibit new work designed to engage visitors in critical and creative thinking about the world we live in.
