Recognized internationally as one of the finest general art museums in the United States, the Nelson-Atkins currently maintains collections of more than 33,500 works of art. Our vast holdings provide the opportunity to create new connections and unique experiences at every turn.
The online collection currently represents a selection of this total, some of which have images available. The number of records and images will be continually expanded until the full collection is represented online. Please note that some of these works may not be on view when you visit the galleries.
Please note: the American Indian galleries are currently closed due to renovation. Other galleries may be closed as needed. We apologize for the inconvenience.
The American Indian galleries will open in November 2009. For updates on the construction progress, see our blog.
