A bright art gallery room filled with student art of various mediums

Our art galleries, located on the ground floor of Building 11, showcase art created by students and faculty, as well as regional, national, and international artists. Learn more about the Lane Art Galleries.

Artist Residency

The Jane Stevens King Artist Residency, a prestigious, short-term program at Lane Community College, bridges the gap between professional practice and student learning. Unlike some residencies that only provide space for an artist to work in isolation, with this program you'll actively engage with the vibrant LCC community in beautiful Eugene, Oregon

Through reciprocal learning, you'll be inspired by fresh art students who are learning their craft, while also sharing your creativity, insight on professional practices, and diverse perspectives.  

 For information about the application process as well as compensation, contact Brian Haimbach at haimbachb@lanecc.edu.

Art on Campus

While on campus visiting the galleries, you can also take an “Art on Campus” walking tour to view Lane’s outdoor sculptures, murals, paintings, and gardens. Visit campus and use this map to take your personal tour.
