The collection was originally displayed on the Pemberton Campus in 1985. Since that time, new pieces have been added and the works have been moved from the Lewis M. Parker Center, the Campus' original building, into the newer, more accessible Academic Center and Library. The Collection is, in large part, the result of the generosity of former student government associations and friends of Burlington County College. The two-dimensional and three-dimensional works of art their generosity has made possible enrich the collegiate environment. For more information about BCC's Permanent Collection, contact:

Student Gallery & Art Store
The Student Gallery and Art Store located in the Mount Holly Center, in the heart of Mount Holly's Historic Downtown District, is the place for young artists and entrepreneurs to learn how things work in the "real" world. In an effort to bring business students and artists together, BCC opened a student run gallery and art store. The Student Gallery & Art Store serves as both a showcase to display and sell original works of art and a facility to sell art supplies. The Gallery features "themed" shows featuring art pieces created by students and professional artists every few weeks. For information please call, (609) 267-5618, ext. 4509 or stop by The Student Gallery & Art Store, 1 High Street, Mount Holly, NJ 08060. Hours of operation are Tuesday – Friday 12 pm to 7 pm and Saturday 11 am to 3 pm.

Permanent Art Collection
In an effort to make art more accessible, BCC is proud to provide a diverse collection of permanent art on the Pemberton Campus. The Collection's 31 works of art provide an eclectic experience of line, color, form and composition. Ranging from the primitive to the contemporary, from the representational to the abstract, works in the Collection are executed in graphite, ink, watercolor, and oils, as well as the fine art printing processes of lithography and serigraphy. Sculptural studies are interpreted with wood, metals and electric light. The College also displays artifacts from the Pinelands region, historic maps, quilts and drawings.
Nestled behind the Lewis M. Parker Center on BCC's Pemberton Campus is this year's exhibition of outdoor sculpture. This Garden of steel, bronze and stone has been part of the College landscape for 12 years. It has helped to define and enrich the College environment and inspire those who view it. The Garden is the result of an annual juried competition. Selected works remain on view for a minimum of one year (or longer at the discretion of the artist). The Sculpture Garden is made possible through the generous support of the College, the College Foundation, the Cultural and Heritage Department of Burlington County through a grant from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts.
