The Illustration department's von Hess Gallery is dedicated to featuring nationally and internationally recognized professional illustrators.

These exhibitions of original, outstanding and award-winning work greatly enhance the Illustration department's program by allowing our students to closely examine a body of work from top illustrators working today and to meet leaders in the field who give public presentations to the community and also work individually with them.

Our recently expanded and renovated gallery space enables us to exhibit 30-40 works of art, which means that we can provide a comprehensive and in-depth perspective of each artist's work. The Richard C. von Hess Illustration Gallery's mission is unique among art and design programs in the U.S.
