As the fine arts museum of the University of Chicago, the Smart Museum of Art is a site for rigorous inquiry and exchange that encourages the examination of complex issues through the lens of art objects and artistic practice. Through strong scholarly and community collaborations and a welcoming approach to its exhibitions, collections, publications, research and teaching, and public programs, the Smart Museum plays a dynamic role in expanding artistic canons, rethinking received histories, introducing new perspectives, and engaging diverse communities—locally, nationally, and internationally. The Smart Museum is celebrating its 50th anniversary.&nbsp; Visit <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu" target="_blank">smartmuseum.uchicago.edu</a> for more.&nbsp; Admission to the Smart Museum of Art is always free and open to all.&nbsp; Photo by Jason Smith
