About Snite Museum of Art

The Snite Research Center in the Visual Arts, formerly known as the Snite Museum of Art, is the former art museum of the University of Notre Dame, located on its campus near South Bend, Indiana. The museum held around 30,000 works of art spanning cultures, eras, and media. It supported faculty teaching and research and through programs, lectures, workshops, and exhibitions. Students played a role as gallery guides and as student advisory members.

In April 2023, the Snite Museum closed in anticipation of the completion of the new Raclin Murphy Museum of Art, less than half a mile to the south, which opened in December 2023. The building was renamed as a research center, and currently supports ongoing care of the collection and research for the Raclin Murphy's holdings and houses the curatorial and administrative offices.
