Rosenberg Gallery

The Rosenberg Gallery is located in the lobby of the 900+ seat Kraushaar Auditorium and the 223-seat Merrick Lecture Hall. Art exhibits have been mounted here since 1962, and the gallery was renovated and renamed the Rosenberg Gallery in 1982, after Ruth Blaustein Rosenberg ’21. Operated under the auspices of Goucher’s Art and Art History programs, the gallery presents five exhibits each academic year.

The gallery frequently exhibits artists from other parts of our region alongside Baltimore-area artists to help bring these artistic communities closer together and promote the exchange of ideas and information.

Visit the Rosenberg Gallery site for more information about the gallery.
