Perrel Art Gallery

The Perrel Art Gallery, made possible through the generosity of the Allen E. Perrel family, is a cornerstone of the visual arts at the John H. Tucker, Jr. Arts Center, with an important role to play in the educated life for which Norfolk Academy prepares its students. Our Perrel Gallery is the focus of both revolving artist’s work and of our private teaching collection. It showcases student work twice a year.

Located to the left of the Price Auditorium foyer, the gallery space provided through the generosity of the Cooper family affords an attractive and accessible setting in which student photographers, as well as alumni, faculty, and staff can display their work.
