As teaching museums of a world-renowned university, the Johns Hopkins University Museums contribute to the advancement of scholarship and museum practice by helping to train future art historians, historic preservationists, and museum professionals. They provide curricular support to faculty through their collections, exhibitions, and programs; and offer credit-bearing courses and internships to help meet the university's academic mission. The museums welcome members of the public to experience their collections and special exhibitions, as well as to enjoy their tours, lectures, and other programs.
Housed in a former Gilded Age mansion surrounded by Italianate gardens, Evergreen Museum & Library is at once a prestigious collection of fine and decorative arts, rare books, and manuscripts assembled by two generations of Baltimore's B&O Garrett family, and a vibrant, inspirational venue for contemporary artists. The collection counts among its many treasures post-Impressionist paintings, Chinese porcelain, Japanese lacquerware, a Léon-Bakst designed private theatre, and one of the largest private collections of Louis Comfort Tiffany art glass. The museum is grateful for the support of the Evergreen House Foundation.
