The Air Force Art Collection consists of artwork donated by professional artists that portray the people, equipment, activities, facilities, and other historically significant subjects related to the United States Air Force and its predecessor organizations in the U.S. Army Air Corps. The Collection is centrally registered at Headquarters Air Force. Its holdings are exhibited to inform internal and external audiences about Air Force missions and capabilities. Although predominately paintings, the collection also contains drawings, sketches, and sculptures.
