Mission

The mission of the Gibbes Museum of Art is to enhance lives through art (see continuation schedule O) by engaging people of every background and experience with art and artists of enduring quality; collect and preserve the art that touches Charleston; and provide opportunities to learn, to discover, to enjoy, and to be inspired by the creative process.

About

Collections/exhibitions/scholarship: The art collection housed at the Gibbes constitutes the single greatest cultural asset in the Lowcountry region of South Carolina. Few collections in the United States match its depth, breadth and quality in American art that touches Charleston. The Gibbes aims to present an innovative series of special exhibitions and permanent collection installations of superior quality, variety, and scope. Exhibitions are designed as an experimental platform for engaging with art in new and exciting ways and challenging established interpretations. The program strives to promote creativity, introduce new art forms, provide perspective on larger community issues, encourage freedom of thought, and connect with the broadest possible audience.
