About the Gallery
Visit the Gallery
Situated within Colorado State University’s Department of Art and Art History, the Hatton Gallery opened in 1974 and was dedicated to Clara Hatton, artist and educator, to honor her extraordinary vision and leadership in founding the land-grant university’s art department.
Today, it is a vibrant space for innovative exhibitions and public programs that foster vital artistic expression, bold interdisciplinary collaborations, and thoughtful community engagement around pressing issues of our time.
A key connector between Fort Collins and global artistic voices, the gallery embraces an experimental approach to its role as a curatorial and pedagogical platform.
Through strategic partnerships across CSU and beyond, the Hatton Gallery invites artists, students, and audiences into spaces of inquiry, risk-taking, and artistic growth.
