The Rollins Museum of Art (RMA) features rotating exhibitions, ongoing programs, and an extensive permanent collection that spans centuries, from examples of ancient art and artifacts to contemporary art. Open to the public year-round, its holdings include the only European Old Master paintings in the Orlando area, a sizeable American art collection, and a forward-thinking contemporary collection on view both at the museum and The Alfond Inn at Rollins. Located a few blocks from campus, The Alfond Inn is a visionary philanthropic boutique hotel whose proceeds help fund student scholarships. In 1981, the museum became one of Florida’s first college museums to be accredited by the American Association of Museums (currently the American Alliance of Museums) and continues in 2022 as one of only four AAM-accredited museums in greater Orlando. Located on the historic Rollins College campus, the museum offers a high-quality cultural experience in picturesque Winter Park. In addition, part of the museum's world-class collection of contemporary art is always on view at The Alfond Inn, located a few blocks away from campus. Programming is funded in part by Orange County Government through the Arts & Cultural Affairs Program. Additional support comes from members of the Director's Circle and the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, The Florida Council on Arts and Culture. Lectures sponsored in part by Rollins College and the Gary Libby Foundation. Support for RMA's educational programming comes from the Winifred Johnson Clive Foundation. Free admission continues in 2022 courtesy of RMA Members. The Rollins Museum of Art is generously funded, in part, by Rollins College.

Ubicado a escasos minutos del campus, el Alfond Inn es un visionario y filantrópico hotel, cuyos ingresos ayudan a financiar becas para estudiantes. En 1981, el museo se convirtió en el primer museo universitario de Florida en ser acreditado por la American Association of Museums (hoy en día conocida como American Alliance of Museums) y continúa siendo en 2022 uno de los tan solo cuatro museos reconocidos por la AAM en la zona metropolitana de Orlando. Ubicado en el histórico campus de Rollins College, el museo ofrece una experiencia cultural de gran calidad en la pintoresca ciudad de Winter Park.

Have you experienced our new exhibition 🏙️ Visions of the City? 

Explore Alfredo Jaar’s ✨ A Logo for America, on view in the exhibition, which examines how the word “America” is often used to refer only to the United States, while “America” encompasses an entire continent, from Chile to Canada. 🌎

In a recent feature from Hyperallergic , Jaar reflects on his experiences as a Chilean artist who moved to the United States, and why the work has continued to take on new meaning nearly 40 years later.

“In ’86, they invited me to do a piece in Times Square, and I thought, ‘This is my chance to do a public project about this,’” shares Jaar. ”I did it purely on semiotic terms. I was not thinking about the larger political issues; I was just trying to change the language: This is not America. America is a continent. But then, the work picked up and had a life of its own and I completely lost control over it.”

Read the full article at the 🔗 in our bio and view this work from The Museum’s collection in 🏙️ Visions of the City at The Rollins Museum of Art.

Bring a friend! Admission is Free!
