Since 1976, The Art Gallery at Kingsborough Community College, now the Kingsborough Art Museum, or KAM, has been dedicated to providing students, faculty, and staff at Kingsborough, along with the many communities that make up the borough of Brooklyn, art exhibitions of historical, regional, national or international importance that reflect the values and standards inherent to the Art Department curriculum. Over the years, KAM has presented work by such notables as conceptual artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, activist artists the Guerilla Girls, sculptors Melvin Edwards and Martin Puryear, and painters Lois Dodd, Alex Katz, Audrey Flack, and Rackstraw Downes.
