The Friedman Art Gallery, gifted to Penn State Wilkes-Barre by Sidney and Pauline Friedman, regularly displays the work of students and local artists, as well as private art collections. The Gallery strives to promote and encourage professional and amateur artists from the Penn State Wilkes-Barre campus and surrounding communities, while giving visitors to the campus the opportunity to view fresh and innovative artwork in a wide range of media.
