The Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art and its campus-wide art installation program will enhance Johnson County Community College's national leadership position in higher education; advance the cultural profile of Johnson County, metropolitan Kansas City and the State of Kansas; and serve as a major cultural center.
Mission:
The mission of the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art and its campus-wide art installation program is to be an interdisciplinary academic resource for students and faculty, and a cultural center for exhibiting, interpreting, collecting and preserving works of contemporary art in a wide range of media. With a commitment to serving both this and future generations, the Nerman Museum's primary roles are to:
1. Educate students, the college community and the public about the art of their time by maintaining an art acquisition and exhibition program, and related educational programming focused on contemporary art. 2. Provide a campus-wide art installation program that incorporates art into the daily lives of students, serves as a readily accessible resource for academic instruction and community engagement, and accommodates the growing collection.
