History:
The Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, designed by architect Philip Johnson, was formally
dedicated on May 16, 1963. The collections housed in the gallery focus on the work of
American artists. Upon her death in 1950, Mary Frances Sheldon bequeathed her entire
personal fortune and her personal art collection to the University of Nebraska in order to
build an art gallery. Sheldon's brother, Adams Bromley Sheldon, contributed a portion of his
own estate to the building fund. In March 2008 the gallery began operating under its new
name, the Sheldon Museum of Art.
