University of Arizona Museum of Art

The University of Arizona Museum of Art holds one of the most distinguished permanent collections of any university art museum in the Southwest, with particular strengths in European paintings and sculpture from the Renaissance through the 20th century, American art from the colonial period to the present, and works on paper - prints, drawings, and photographs - spanning six centuries of Western art history. The Kress Collection of Renaissance and Baroque paintings, donated to the museum in 1960, includes works by Tintoretto, Veronese, and other major masters of the period. Located on the University of Arizona campus and typically free for students and low-cost for the public, it is one of Tucson's most accessible and underappreciated cultural treasures.
