Nasher stained glass ornament

The Nasher Museum of Art opened in October of 2005. Its predecessor, the Duke University Museum of Art, was originally founded in 1969 on East Campus, following the acquisition of 200 medieval works from the Ernest Brummer Collection. The new museum was named in honor of the late art collector and benefactor Raymond D. Nasher (T’43). More than a million people have visited the museum since its opening. In 2005, this poster was created for the opening of the museum and a commemorative stained-glass ornament was gifted to Duke staff in 2006. Due to a generous donation in 2022, admission to the Nasher is now free for all visitors.
