Henry Art Gallery

The Henry Art Gallery is the art museum of the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, USA. Located on the west edge of campus along 15th Avenue N.E. in the University District, it was founded in 1927 and was the first public art museum in the state of Washington. It was expanded in 1997 to 40,000 square feet (3,700 m²), at which time the 154 seat auditorium was added.

The Henry's collection includes over 18,000 objects. It was named for Horace C. Henry , the local businessman who donated money for its founding, as well as a collection of paintings.
