About Us
Winthrop University Galleries
presents up to 18 professional, faculty, and student exhibitions
annually and offers accompanying educational programs, visiting artists,
and opening receptions to inspire and enrich the lives of Winthrop
students, faculty, staff, and regional audiences. Students also gain
hands-on experience working as gallery assistants. WUG has enjoyed
regional recognition and continues to strive to serve the campus and
community by promoting academic excellence and human understanding
through visual art and design. Exhibitions and events are always free and open to the public. There are three galleries in two buildings; the Rutledge and Elizabeth Dunlap Patrick Galleries in Rutledge Building and Lewandowski Student Gallery in McLaurin Hall.
