The Princeton University Art Museum is recognized as one of the best small museums in the world, with over 92,000 art pieces from all over the world, ranging from ancient to modern. Only a small part of the collection (about five percent) is displayed at any given time in one of the 26 galleries. Every season, one or more of the gallery collections rotates and goes on display.

In addition to a permanent collection, the museum shows temporary exhibitions such as "The City Lost & Found: Capturing New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, 1960-1980" three times a year. Many of the art pieces in the museum are scanned and are available for viewing online. The Princeton University Art Museum is one of the top Princeton attractions. There are free museum tours every Saturday and Sunday.
