Exhibits


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 in provocative ways. The works tell stories of human struggle and triumph. The gallery also allows visitors to engage with the artist through artist talks. Join us in interacting with these works of art to better grasp the meaning that informs their creation.

New! Coming in January 2026

Beginning in January, 2026, the Center for Ethics gallery will host a rotating 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 will explore the ethics of compassion through discussions, reflection, and original artwork. We look forward to celebrating their exhibit opening on January 26, 2026 at the Center for Ethics. More information to follow soon.
