The Rollins Museum of Art (RMA) features rotating exhibitions, ongoing programs, and an extensive permanent collection that spans centuries, from examples of ancient art and artifacts to contemporary art. Open to the public year-round, its holdings include the only European Old Master paintings in the Orlando area, a sizeable American art collection, and a forward-thinking contemporary collection

on view both at the museum and The Alfond Inn at Rollins. Located a few blocks from campus, The Alfond Inn is a visionary philanthropic boutique hotel whose proceeds help fund student scholarships. In 1981, the museum became one of Florida’s first college museums to be accredited by the American Association of Museums (currently the American Alliance of Museums) and continues in 2022 as one of only four AAM-accredited museums in greater Orlando. Located on the historic Rollins College campus, the museum offers a high-quality cultural experience in picturesque Winter Park. In addition, part of the museum's world-class collection of contemporary art is always on view at The Alfond Inn, located a few blocks away from campus. Programming is funded in part by Orange County Government through the Arts & Cultural Affairs Program. Additional support comes from members of the Director's Circle and the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, The Florida Council on Arts and Culture. Lectures sponsored in part by Rollins College and the Gary Libby Foundation. Support for RMA's educational programming comes from the Winifred Johnson Clive Foundation. Free admission continues in 2022 courtesy of RMA Members. The Rollins Museum of Art is generously funded, in part, by Rollins College. El Rollins Museum of Art (RMA) presenta exhibiciones, programas, y una amplia colección que abarca varios siglos de arte, con ejemplos tanto de la antigüedad como de arte contemporáneo. El museo está abierto al público durante todo el año, y posee las únicas obras de grandes maestros europeos en el área de Orlando, una considerable colección de arte americano y una innovadora colección de arte contemporáneo disponible tanto en el RMA como en el Alfond Inn de Rollins. Ubicado a escasos minutos del campus, el Alfond Inn es un visionario y filantrópico hotel, cuyos ingresos ayudan a financiar becas para estudiantes. En 1981, el museo se convirtió en el primer museo universitario de Florida en ser acreditado por la American Association of Museums (hoy en día conocida como American Alliance of Museums) y continúa siendo en 2022 uno de los tan solo cuatro museos reconocidos por la AAM en la zona metropolitana de Orlando. Ubicado en el histórico campus de Rollins College, el museo ofrece una experiencia cultural de gran calidad en la pintoresca ciudad de Winter Park.

You’re going to love these staff picks! ✨

If you’ve visited Rollins Museum of Art in the past seven years, you’ve likely encountered the friendly face of Alex Menzel, Special Projects Coordinator. In our exhibition 🖼️ “I remember when…” Reflections from the RMA Staff, Alex selected GGost (2021), a pigment print with oil paint and gold leaf by Sarah Anne Johnson.

Alex shares this beautiful reflection about the work:

“Sarah Anne Johnson’s works might be my favorite in the RMA collection. They’re not just beautiful; they bring back memories of my childhood, when our house backed up to thick woods with a 30-foot waterfall and a creek that ran for about half a mile.

We played there all day, every day in the summer. Our parents never went back there, so it felt like it truly belonged to us, the kids of the neighborhood.”

Take advantage of free admission to view Alex’s selection now through August 30 at Rollins Museum of Art.

Artwork: Sarah Anne Johnson (Canadian, b. 1976) GGost, 2021, Pigment print with oil,paint, and gold leaf. The Alfond Collection of Contemporary Art, Gift of Barbara ‘68 and Theodore ‘68 Alfond. 2021.1.26
