Located in the Fine Arts building of Barton Community College, the Shafer Gallery displays works by Gus Shafer, objects from Barton's growing permanent collection, and a rotating series of exhibitions from regional and national artists.
The 7,709 square feet of exhibit space, based on repeating hexagons which change configurations to fit the needs of rotating exhibits, houses the permanent art collection of more than 800 works including pieces by Chagall, Matisse, Picasso, Audubon, and others.
