In Spring 2023, the KAM launched a new series of small focus exhibitions in which students from Hope College’s various multicultural student organizations (MSOs) were invited to select artworks from the museum’s collection and to write labels explaining why they chose the artworks and what the artworks mean to them. The student groups that have participated in the series since Spring 2023 include the Black Student Union (BSU), the Asian Student Union (ASU), the Latino Student Organization (LSO), Women of Color United (WOCU), and Prism (Hope’s LGBTQ+ student group). Telling Their Stories and other KAM focus exhibitions are supported by the David and Jane Armstrong Focus Exhibition Endowment.

On view August 29th through December 13th, 2025

The KAM is Open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00am-4:00pm

Admission to the museum is always free and the public is welcome.

The Kruizenga Art Museum functions as an educational resource for Hope College and the greater West Michigan community. The museum features two public galleries as well as a classroom and climate-controlled storage space for its 10,000-object permanent collection. It is named in honor of a leadership gift from Dr. Richard and Margaret Kruizenga, both of whom graduated from Hope in 1952.
