The Slide Collection
The slide collection consists of approximately 175,000 slides representing the history of world art and architecture. It serves as the primary teaching tool for the art history faculty, provides supplemental teaching material for studio faculty as well as other members of the Vanderbilt community, and is used by fine arts students for study and research.

Fine Arts Collection
Beginning with Anna C. Hoyt's generous donation of 105 Old Master and modern prints more than forty years ago, the collection has continued to flourish and increase the depth, diversity, and number of its holdings. Now totalling more than 5,000 works from more than forty countries and cultures, it serves to illustrate the history of world art in its most creative and comprehensive aspects. This art historical collection is the only one of its kind in the area, serving the needs of students and the wider community.

Contini-Volterra Archive
This research collection of more than 60,000 photographs--many of which are one-of-a-kind--was assembled from the 1930s to the 1960s by two Florentine art professionals who helped assemble the Contini and Kress Collections.

Fine Arts Gallery
The Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery features six exhibitions each year that represent the diversity of artistic production today, as well as throughout the history of Eastern and Western art. In addition to exhibitions drawn from the permanent collection and organized from public and private sources, a number of traveling exhibitions are presented as well. Additionally, a portion of the gallery space is frequently dedicated to the exhibition of selected works from the permanent collection.

Sarratt Gallery
Located in the lobby of Sarratt Student Center, the Sarratt Gallery is known for its unique exhibits featuring paintings, sculpture, drawings, photography, prints and multimedia works of the mid-South's most noted contemporary artists.

Margaret Cuninggim Women's Center
During the fall and spring semesters, the Cuninggim Women's Center sponsors five art exhibits. The Center's purpose is to offer women artists an opportunity to show their work. Often the artist is just starting her career, but many established artists also show their work at the Center.

Kennedy Center
The Kennedy Center's exhibits display artwork dedicated to or created by people with disabilities or people who are at risk for developmental problems.
