The Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection is the only museum dedicated to Indigenous Australian art in the United State and the most significant collection of its kind outside of Australia.

Because we maintain close relationships with Indigenous artists and communities, we feature their voices prominently and you’ll feel like you’re hearing directly from Indigenous artists about their art and culture. A free 20-30 minute tour is offered daily at 10:30 am and 1:30 pm. How have Indigenous Australians shared their art with the world? How did their art change the face of global contemporary art? What kind of a relationship to Indigenous artists have with their land? How do their beliefs inform their art? How has their art been used as a tool for social and racial justice?The Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection is the only museum dedicated to Indigenous Australian art in the United State and the most significant collection of its kind outside of Australia.
