About the List Gallery

The List Gallery presents curated exhibitions of work by emerging, mid-career, and preeminent artists and facilitates diverse learning opportunities, including site-specific installations, gallery talks, and creative workshops. Exhibiting artists often serve as visiting critics and lecturers, giving students and members of the general public access to a broad range of media and interpretation. List Gallery exhibitions complement the College curriculum, catalyze interdisciplinary study, and serve both the Swarthmore community and the Greater Philadelphia region.

The List Gallery Internship program and List Gallery Assistant positions provide students with an introduction to curatorial practices, hands-on learning opportunities, career support, and individualized mentoring. Students workers play an important role in the gallery by helping to organize, interpret, and promote exhibitions and public outreach.

Located in the Lang Performing Arts Center, the List Gallery's 1,200 square-foot facility was established in part through generous gifts from Eugene and Theresa Lang and by Vera G. List. Gallery programming is supported through the generosity of donors, including Kaori Kitao, William R. Kenan, Jr., Professor Emerita of Art History; Joan Gordon; and the Ann Trimble Warren.
