Connecting Art, Architecture, Nature, Education, and Wellness
Envisioned by philanthropist Alice Walton, Crystal Bridges Campus brings together a world-class art museum, an institute dedicated to improving health care, and a future-forward medical school into one 134-acre campus. The campus features three landmark buildings designed by acclaimed architecture firms and connected by miles of scenic trails.

Expanding access to the arts is one of Alice Walton’s lifelong passions, from opening Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in 2011 to founding Art Bridges Foundation in 2017. The campus supports access to the arts by fostering dialogue, creative expression, and community and student engagement. Gallery spaces can also be found in Heartland Whole Health Institute and the School.


Heartland Whole Health Institute
Working in conjunction with the School to transform health care in the Heartland and beyond, Heartland Whole Health Institute provides students access to events, speakers, and resources at the cutting edge of health care delivery.
