THE CYRUS M. RUNNING GALLERY begins in the 50 foot long skyway which connects the Olin Center with the Francis Frazier Comstock Theater building. The gallery contains some 3000 square feet of floor space and more than 240 running feet of wall space. Exhibition walls and panels are covered in neutral wall cloth. Excluding the skyway, ceiling height is 14 feet.

The gallery maintains a steady schedule of exhibitions throughout the academic year (see schedule below).
