Commitment to Excellence
The Daura Museum of Art at the University of Lynchburg was established in 1974 as the University’s art museum. It was dedicated in 1990 in memory of the Catalan-American painter Pierre Daura (1896-1976) and his wife, Louise Blair Daura (1905-1972). In 2020, the University’s Board of Trustees unanimously approved renaming it the Daura Museum of Art. The Museum continues to grow and thrive as an active academic unit that supports the mission of the University of Lynchburg by being a resource for teaching through the collection, care, interpretation, and exhibition of works of art, and to enriching the cultural life of University constituents and a worldwide audience.
The Museum pledges that, in fulfillment of its educational mission, it strives to operate according to national standards and best practices to the best of its abilities and per its resources. [AAM Pledge of Excellence]
We acknowledge the Monacan Indian Nation as the traditional stewards of the land on which the University of Lynchburg now sits. We offer our respect to the Monacan people, past, present, and emerging.
