In addition to holding one of the largest university-affiliated art collections in the Due south, the museum presents world-class touring exhibitions of regional, American, and European painting, sculpture, decorative arts, works on paper, and photography.

The LSU Museum of Art is a gateway connecting the Academy and the community at large to a diverse range of artistic styles and periods.

The LSU Museum of Art (LSU MOA) collects, conserves, exhibits, and interprets the fine and decorative arts entrusted to its care and stewardship, providing opportunities for research, instruction, and enjoyment to students, scholars, and visitors. It sets itself apart through the strength of its collection and the breadth of inquiry opportunities offered by the Louisiana State University (LSU) academic community. Further, it engages collaboratively with its Shaw Heart for the Arts partners to enrich the cultural life of Baton Rouge by offering a range of cultural activities.

The Anglo-American Art Museum opened in 1962 in the Memorial Tower on LSU's Billy Rouge campus. The museum and its collection were established through a generous gift to LSU in 1959 from an anonymous donor who wished to support an establishment that would illustrate British and continental influences on early American art and culture in the South. The museum'south significant drove of American and British portraiture, furniture, and decorative arts grew from this foundation.

In 1992, the university changed the proper name of the museum to the LSU Museum of Art to reflect how its collecting practices had expanded since the 1970s with acquisitions of Louisiana and global cultural textile. A vision to relocate the museum collection to enable greater admission was born in 1993, and this vision was realized when the museum moved to the Shaw Center for the Arts. LSU MOA has gained 15,000 square anxiety of exhibition infinite, bright and spacious administrative offices, quality storage areas for the collection, and common spaces for public programs and customs use.
