Davis Museum and Cultural Center, Art museum and cultural center at Wellesley College, United States.

The Davis Museum maintains a collection of 11,000 artworks spanning multiple centuries, including pieces by Paul Cézanne and Alberto Giacometti.

The museum's collection originated in the Farnsworth Art Building in 1889, before moving to its current Rafael Moneo-designed structure in 1993.

The museum integrates art directly into academic curricula through a dedicated gallery where professors display collection pieces relevant to their courses.

The facility includes exhibition spaces, a cinema for art-related film screenings, and a café where visitors can purchase refreshments.

The museum houses a restored mosaic from Antioch, excavated through collaboration with the Worcester Art Museum.
