THE COLLECTION: Where Art Meets Fashion is multifaceted art program providing visitors with the opportunity to experience permanent and rotating art exhibitions throughout the center.
This thoughtfully-curated Collection represents local artists, student art, and renowned creators through a variety of exhibits that engage the community and highlight the ever changing world around us.
Time: A Contemplative Exhibition
Located on the Upper Level near Macy's
Time is an ethereal and evocative series of works that explores the thin tapestry of time. Through the lens of an eroded canyon, where every crevice whispers tales of millions of years of history, and ancient human structures standing amidst a millennia of aging, the collection beckons viewers to contemplate the profound relationship between time and the human experience. Each piece is a reverie, a glimpse into the fluidity of moments, inviting us to gaze through the eyes of each artist and to ponder our place in the world in this exact moment.

The Tolerance Project
In a world increasingly split by our human differences, The Tolerance Project utilizes the unique power of design to remind us what we all have in common. The Tolerance Project is a travelling poster collection that celebrates and honors the starting point of all meaningful discourse: Tolerance. This Exhibit has brought a message of social acceptance to more than 500,000 people through 180 shows in 47 countries worldwide. Founded by artist-activist Mirko Ilić, this bold initiative showcases the work of over 200 designers—some established, some up-and-coming, all wildly talented. The project is dedicated to reaching people who don’t ordinarily visit galleries or museums. Located on the Upper Level near Macy's.

The Foundation also hosts an array of classes in areas such as arts education, exercise, and theatre, and offers special events and activities aimed at community engagement and personal enrichment.
