History

We are dedicated to engaging the community through innovative academic discourse of the arts by presenting original, compelling, and diversified visual art programming.

The Meadows Museum of Art at Centenary College is an educational unit of Centenary College dedicated to presenting original, compelling, and diversified visual art programming. We feature a rotating contemporary art exhibition schedule showcasing international, national, and regional artists. Additionally, as a collecting museum we are charged with the collection, preservation and interpretation of visual artworks. Our Permanent Collection was founded by the donation of the Indochina Collection of Jean Despujols by Algur H. Meadows. We maintain the spirit of his donation by focusing our collection on artwork that demonstrates artistic theories from the French School of Art with an emphasis on collecting regional artists.


The Meadows Museum of Art is accredited by the American Alliance of Museums.
