Center for Ethics Art Gallery

The walls of the Ethics Center serve as gallery space to display socially conscious art. Artists are selected for art that engages social issues and tell stories of human character, struggle and triumph. The gallery also allows visitors to engage with the artist through artist talks. 

New! 

Beginning in January 2026, the Center for Ethics gallery will host a juried exhibition of student work relating to Emory's annual virtue initiative.

This year's theme, The Year of Compassion, is part of an initiative dedicated to empathy, healing, and connection celebrating Emory’s nearly three decades of collaboration with His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Though coursework in the Emory Visual Arts Department, students explored the ethics of compassion through discussions, reflection, and original artwork. The Center hosted the students and arts faculty in celebration of the exhibit opening on January 28, 2026 at the Center for Ethics.
