The International Museum of Surgical Science, in collaboration with the School of Visual Arts and the Illustration Program at Columbia College Chicago, invites you to experience a dynamic exhibition of illustrations created by current students and recent alumni. Inspired by the museum’s unique and historic collection, the works on display reimagine medical artifacts, surgical advancements, and anatomical illustrations through a contemporary lens.

This dynamic showcase features a blend of traditional and digital techniques, offering a fresh perspective on the intersection of visual storytelling, science, and history.
