Showcasing Our Museum's Star Power

The spirit of excellence and innovation reflected in Kent State research is equally evident in faculty and student creative endeavors, and in campus cultural resources that serve students, enrich the lives of area residents, attract visitors from around the world and put Kent State on the map as a center of artistic excellence. The university community celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Kent State University Museum in 2010 with the world premiere of an exhibit showcasing costumes worn by fashion icon and screen legend Katherine Hepburn. Kent State's receipt of the Hepburn collection was a collegiate coup that speaks volumes about the museum's stature.
