Along with the four art and design departments, Florida State University's College of Fine Arts also governs The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida, and The Museum of Fine Arts (MoFA), which is housed on FSU's main campus. The Ringling Museum houses an extensive collection of Asian art, theatre artifacts, European and American art, and modern art. Students from the art history and art education departments have the opportunity to study at The Ringling Museum. The Museum of Fine Arts hosts exhibitions from students and artists in the local community as well as individuals. The MoFA is also home to a permanent collection of over 6,000 donated works which include African sculpture, modern American paintings, Japanese ukiyo-e prints, and a wealth of other pieces.
The Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training, the college's MFA Acting program, is in a separate campus in Sarasota.
The School of Dance is home to the dance research center, the Maggie Allesee National Center for Choreography (MANCC).
In 2022, it was the first year that MFA students curated a show in the WJB Gallery. The students focused on a collaboration called "Between the Lines" that explored how the artists conversed with the written language. The exhibit will be on view from December 2022 until January 10, 2023.
FSU/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training
The FSU/Asolo Conservatory for Actor Training graduate program was relocated to Sarasota in 1973, and is now housed in the Florida State University Center for the Performing Arts.
