Charles W. and Norma C. Carroll Gallery

The Charles W. and Norma C. Carroll Gallery hosts a full program of exhibitions by Marshall Students, Faculty, and professional artists from across the country and even across the world including senior Capstone exhibitions and the popular Annual National Juried Exhibition.

Birke Art Gallery

The Birke Art Gallery is host to a series of rotating exhibitions throughout the year including an annual juried student exhibition that has provided decades of art students the opportunity to showcase their best works of art.

Pneumatic Gallery

Housed on the first floor of the Visual Arts Center, the gallery occupies a small and quirky space adjacent to the Charles W. and Norma C. Carroll Gallery. The Student Gallery opened in the Fall semester of 2021 in response to a need for exhibition space students and their professors could access on short notice. The Student Gallery was renamed the Pneumatic Gallery in 2024.
