The 115,000-square-foot structure serves as the region's major art institution for eastern Iowa and western Illinois, housing more than 4,000 works spanning the 16th century to the present — with a collection particularly known for Haitian, Colonial Mexican, and Midwestern art, including the only self-portrait Grant Wood ever painted. The museum offers a range of event spaces for private gatherings, corporate functions, weddings, and social celebrations. The Quad City Bank & Trust Grand Lobby accommodates up to 400 guests for receptions, featuring an open floor plan, high ceilings, terrazzo flooring, and views of the Mississippi River.
