Mission
Located in the heart of the University of La Verne’s main campus, on the ground floor of historic Miller Hall, The Irene Carlson Gallery of Photography is a vital center for civic engagement. Through a compelling program of exhibitions, lectures, screenings, and discussions that promotes a critical dialogue about contemporary photography, the gallery generates collaboration, conversation and artistic growth between our students, faculty, staff, and the local community.
Established in 1990, the gallery is dedicated to the University of La Verne’s commitment to diversity, inclusivity, accessibility, and community engagement within the broader context of intellectual life on campus. The gallery presents exhibitions by contemporary artists, in addition to an annual student exhibition featuring the work of graduating seniors majoring in Photography.
All exhibitions and events are free and open to the public.
