Rowe Galleries
Rowe Galleries
The Rowe Arts Building houses three primary exhibition spaces: the Rowe Lower Gallery, Upper Gallery, and Side Gallery. Each year, exhibitions feature the work of regional, national, and international visiting artists, as well as work by students and faculty from the Department of Art & Art History. The Rowe Arts Side Gallery is usually a student-centered exhibition venue that provides an opportunity for current UNC Charlotte studio art students to participate in a variety of exhibitions. The gallery is designed as a flexible space where students can explore unconventional methods of display and installation, as well as juried or curated exhibitions hosted by student organizations, classes, and studio areas of study. Rowe Galleries are open during the academic year, Monday-Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The Rowe Galleries will be closed for the summer and will reopen in the Fall 2025 semester.

Past exhibitions
The Roderick MacKillop Memorial Alumni Art Exhibition: Rod MacKillop was a beloved painting professor from 1973 until his retirement in 2003. In 1988, he initiated a juried art exhibition of alumni work at the University, a practice that has continued biannually in the galleries of Rowe Arts building. In June 2017, the MacKillop family established three endowments at UNC Charlotte in his memory to find student scholarships and the recurring alumni exhibition.
