Gustafson Gallery

The Gustafson Gallery, named for former Textiles & Clothing Department head Dagmar Gustafson, is a visible extension of the work and activities of the Department of Design & Merchandising. Exhibits installed in the Gallery featuring artifacts from the Collection, include Women's Suits: Transformations in Form and Fabric, 1890-1990, which resulted in the publication of a brochure; and Women in Western Film: Myth versus Reality, which included a special event film screening and panel discussion. Students also use the Gallery for promotional presentations in Merchandising and to present design collections in Apparel Design & Production.
