About the Gallery

Completed around 1972, the Rasmussen Art Gallery was a gift from Bernard Rasmussen, retired arts and crafts teacher. Located along the campus mall opposite the Dining Commons, between the library and Paulin Hall, the gallery has been a cornerstone of creative life at PUC for over fifty years.

Today the gallery hosts rotating exhibitions throughout the academic year, showcasing student work, faculty projects, and visiting artists. It serves as both a learning environment and a cultural gathering place for the PUC and Napa Valley community.

Each year the gallery hosts 4–6 exhibitions ranging from student and faculty shows to visiting artist exhibitions and community collaborations.
