The Raclin Murphy Museum of Art is the art museum of the University of Notre Dame, located on its campus near South Bend, Indiana. The museum occupies a new 70,000-square-foot building, which opened on 1 December 2023, and the surrounding Charles B. Hayes Family Sculpture Park. It holds the art collection of the University of Notre Dame, which was formerly housed in the Snite Museum of Art, which closed at the end of 2023.[1] The more than 30,000 works of art in the collection span cultures, eras and media and include fine art, design objects, decorative arts, prints, drawings, textiles, photographs and art and artefacts from Mesoamerican, Spanish Colonial, Latin American, Mexican, Chicano and African cultures.[2]
