Special Resources/ProgramsThe Nelson-Atkins Museum of ArtThe University of Missouri-Kansas City is fortunate to be adjacent to one of the most comprehensive and distinguished art museums in the country, the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. In addition to having ready access to the gallery's collection, advanced students may be privileged to use the museum's other facilities, such as the reference library, the acquisition records or the museum's collections. Use of these facilities is undertaken only after consultation with a member of the faculty. All art and art history students have free admission to the museum.The department also maintains a close relationship with the museum through joint appointments, student internships and other cooperative programs. Museum curators also lecture in art history at UMKC.
Collection of Slides and Mounted ReproductionsAmong the resources of the department are a curator-supervised collection of slides and mounted photographic reproductions of art. These collections may be used by students with faculty permission and supervision. Selected materials may be put out for study in conjunction with a course or may be requested for individual projects, such as a research paper. In all cases, such use is under the supervision of the curator.
