Happy National Museum Day!

Today, we are spotlighting one of the gems on SVSU's campus, the Marshall M. Fredericks Sculpture Museum. Opened in 1988, the museum features over 200 works by Fredericks, whose sculptures you'll find across SVSU's campus, including the Leaping Gazelle fountain in the President's Courtyard.

Over its 38 years, the museum has hosted traveling exhibits, classes, camps, and events that have brought art to the entire Saginaw Valley community.

If you haven't been back recently, it's worth a visit to see the sculptures all over campus.
