The Toledo Museum of Art’s collection of more than 30,000 works of art is regarded as among the finest in the United States. The Museum boasts over 40 galleries across its expansive campus, which includes the Georgia and David K. Welles Sculpture Garden and the Glass Pavilion dedicated to one of the most renowned collections of glass in the world.

The vision for the TMA collection is to build on the Museum’s founding commitment to quality while simultaneously broadening its scope, aspiring to tell a global history of art. The collection includes works across time, ranging from antiquity to contemporary, and includes significant early modern European works by artists such as Peter Paul Rubens, Artemisia Gentileschi, Frans Hals, Rachel Ruysch, and El Greco; masterworks of modernism by artists such as Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Paul Cadmus, Amedeo Modigliani, Grace Hartigan, Louise Nevelson, and Elizabeth Catlett; and a growing repertory of contemporary works by artists such as Frank Stella, Nam June Paik, Bisa Butler, Anselm Kiefer, Wendy Red Star, Julian Schnabel, Magdalene Odundo, and Kehinde Wiley. In addition to significant holdings in Asian art and the decorative arts, TMA has one of the most renowned collections of ancient Mediterranean art in the Americas.

The sculpture garden includes works by Alexander Calder, Deborah Butterfield, Ellsworth Kelly, Jun Kaneko, and Jaume Plensa.

The TMA Library & Archives welcomes all curious visitors, researchers, art enthusiasts, and students. Reflecting the Museum’s purpose of art education, the library collections focus on the Museum's works of art, exhibitions and history. In addition to serving Museum staff and members, the library serves both the public and the University of Toledo Art Department.
