Department of Administration Lobby Exhibit

The Wisconsin Arts Board Exhibit Space in the Department of Administration Building was specifically designed to promote the work of Wisconsin visual artists from all corners of the state. Ample wall space has accommodated group shows. Spacious display cases have allowed the exhibition of handmade jewelry, ceramics, sculpture and books, as well as unique “outsider art.”

The Wisconsin Arts Board Gallery is located in the Wisconsin Department of Administration (DOA) Building, 101 E. Wilson Street, First Floor, in Madison. It is open weekdays from 7 am until 5 pm.
