History of the galleries:
Ohio University Art Gallery is located on the fifth floor of Seigfred Hall, which was built in 1962 and was the largest arts building in the United States at the time. It originally was named "The Space Arts Building,” and in 1966, the building was renamed Seigfred Hall. Seigfred Hall was named in honor of Earl Covert Seigfred, a native of Seneca Falls, NY and the first Ohio University Dean of the College of Fine Arts, serving in that position for 25 years. The gallery is a 2500 square foot exhibition space, and hosts three to five exhibitions per year.

Trisolini Gallery is located on the 4th floor of Baker Center. Prior to this, it was located on East Union Street in the Trisolini House, which lends its name to the Trisolini gallery. The building Trisolini was named after Anthony G. Trisolini, chair of the Department of Comparitive Arts and Dean of the College of Fine Arts in 1974. The art gallery moved to the new Baker Center in 2007. This relocation to the epicenter of the university attracts wider audiences to the gallery.
