Meadows Museum of Art

The Meadows Museum of Art is an institution in Shreveport that displays artworks across multiple galleries organized by period and artistic approach. The collection combines regional artists with significant national pieces, offering visitors a broad survey of styles and creative practices.

The institution was established in 1975 as a response to the need for a dedicated art space in the region. Its creation marked an important moment in shaping how the local community could experience and support artistic practice.

The museum serves as a meeting place for the community to engage with local and national artworks displayed across its galleries. Visitors can encounter different artistic traditions and perspectives that reflect both regional identity and broader artistic movements.

Admission is free, allowing visitors to explore the galleries at their own pace without financial barriers. The changing exhibitions mean there is always something new to see, so returning visitors will find different works on display.

The institution maintains a research library containing exhibition catalogs and reference materials for scholars studying art and its history. This collection transforms the museum into a working resource center beyond its role as an exhibition venue.
