Visit the galleries
The Mulvane Art Museum and Rita Blitt Gallery are here for you to enjoy. View art between classes, relax in our galleries, and join us for public programs. You can find our regular hours here.
Research an object
Do you have a research project coming up? The Mulvane collection has over 6,000 works from around the world that connect to ideas in many different fields of study. Our staff can help you find an object that will fit your assignment.
Join our student group
The Mulvane Student Advisory Board (MSAB) gives Washburn students a direct voice at the museum. This friendly, low-pressure group advises the Mulvane on everything from social media to events to collection decisions. We’d love to see you there.
Minor with us
In the Museum & Curatorial Studies minor, you'll learn about museums through courses that draw on the Mulvane’s staff and resources. Students of many different majors are represented in the program. Talk to your academic advisor about how this minor could fit into your plan of study.
Work with us
Students who qualify for Federal Work Study can join our team as gallery assistants. Also, if your major requires an internship, you may be able to complete it at the Mulvane. Our interns work in many different areas, including collections, exhibitions, education, and social media.
