The Alfred Jacob Miller Classroom is available for use and the following are images of the construction in June and July 2005, the dedication plaque and reception with the Robert Graff Family, and a class held in the classroom.

Funding for the Classroom has been provided by the Robert Graff Family. The classroom is used by AHC reference archivists to orient classes (UW undergraduate, high school, and others) to the procedures and collections at the Center. The AHC works with more classes than most university archives and special collections, and we are grateful to the Graff family for providing a long-needed space dedicated to this purpose. The room is named in honor of early 19th century artist Alfred Jacob Miller, who created some of the earliest paintings of the land later to become Wyoming. Previous generations of the Graff family donated an unparalleled collection of Miller’s works to the AHC, which are on display in the 2nd floor loggia of the Centennial Complex.
