The Visual Resources Collection (VRC), located in the Museum’s education wing, is a collaborative project between the Museum and the University of Toledo Department of Art and Art History. The VRC maintains a collection of digital images, slides, and DVDs of significant artworks from within the TMA collection and across the art world in general. The VRC helps professors and their students find, create, and display images of artwork for classroom purposes.
