OUMA celebrates its 25th anniversary this summer by exhibiting more than 100 works from its permanent collection, “OUMA in Retrospect: Celebrating 25 Years,” on view July 7-September 16, 2018. Numerous works acquired by founding director Lloyd Nick will be included, illustrating the collection’s long-standing strength in 19th century French art, as well as works of art from the Far East. More recent acquisitions demonstrate the museum’s developing strength in the field of 19th and 20th-century American art.
