The
Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University is a vital and dynamic institution
with a venerable history. Founded in 1891 with the university, the historic
museum was expanded and renamed in 1999 for lead donors Iris and B. Gerald
Cantor. The Cantor's encyclopedic collection spans 5,000 years, includes
more than 45,000 artworks and beckons visitors to travel across the globe
and through time: from Africa to the Americas to Asia, from classical antiquity
to the present day. With 24 galleries presenting selections from the collection
and more than 20 special exhibitions each year, the Cantor serves Stanford's
academic community, draws art lovers from the San Francisco Bay Area and
beyond and attracts campus visitors from around the world. Free admission,
free tours, lectures, family activities and temporary exhibitions make the
Cantor one of the most well-attended university art museums in the country
and a great resource for teaching and research on campus. Information
