The Harvard Art Museums are part of Harvard University and comprise three museums:[1] the Archaeological Exploration of Sardis (founded in 1958),[3] the Fogg Museum (established in 1895[4]), the Busch-Reisinger Museum (established in 1903[4]), and the Arthur M. Sackler Museum (established in 1985[4]) and four research centers: the Center for the Technical Study of Modern Art (founded in 2002),[5] the Harvard Art Museums Archives, and the Straus Center for Conservation and Technical Studies (founded in 1928).[6] The three museums that constitute the Harvard Art Museums were initially integrated into a single institution under the name Harvard University Art Museums in 1983.[6] The word "University" was dropped from the institutional name in 2008.
