Impact
We value art as a catalyst for learning, personal growth, and meaningful connection. We actively engage students, scholars, and the public through outreach, programs, and partnerships.
Mission
The museum inspires, engages, and educates diverse audiences through the power of art.
Vision
We aspire to be a vibrant and inclusive learning environment that positions art as an integral part of society to expand dialogue, cultural understanding, and social change.
Students and Internships
Your involvement supports WSU student employees and interns. WSU students can learn about complex museum operations in the Fine Arts Museum Procedures class taught by the Curator of Education, work in the museum engaging with visitors as Visitor Ambassadors, and more!
Buy-A-Bus Program
The Buy-A-Bus program started in 2008 and covers the reimbursement of travel to the museum for schools within a 100-mile radius of the museum. The program reaches out to over 300 schools in our impact zone. Learn more about our Buy-A-Bus program.
You can support buses for schools by donating to the Buy-A-Bus (BAB) Fund.

The arts are essential to creating interdisciplinary connections and making all of us better, more critically observant individuals. The new Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art WSU–placed in the heart of the Pullman campus–symbolizes the treasured role of the arts and our commitment to offering our students a transformative educational experience.
