Mandeville Gallery

The Mandeville Gallery is an art gallery, located on the second floor of the Nott Memorial at Union College, Schenectady, New York, United States. The gallery opened in 1995 and is dedicated to exhibiting work by nationally recognized, contemporary artists exploring modern themes. Due to the unusual architecture of the Nott Memorial, the Mandeville Gallery provides a unique environment for viewing exhibitions. The Gallery is a mezzanine, open to the floors above and below, and consists of two semi-circular areas of viewing, creating an atypical but creative gallery venue.[1]
