The Rutgers–Camden Collection of Art includes over 700 works of art by such artists as Andy Warhol, Salvador Dali, Glenn Ligon, Helen Frankenthaler, Marisol, Robert Rauschenberg, Lorna Simpson, and Grandma Moses. The collection has several areas of concentration including work on paper by contemporary artists, works by artists from southern New Jersey, and works purchased in the form of the Stedman Purchase Prize from the annual Rutgers–Camden Senior Thesis exhibition.
Due to generous donations, the collection also contains a number of Ukiyo-e (woodblock prints) from Edo period Japan, large-scale sculptures and drawings from notable New Jersey artist George Segal, and drawings by prominent European painters like Eugène Delacroix, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. Rutgers Camden Center for the Arts curates special themed exhibitions with the collection and also places this artwork on the Rutgers-Camden campus for the public to enjoy.

Thanks to a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, a portion of the Rutgers-Camden Collection of Art is available online through RUcore, a digital repository for the significant intellectual property of Rutgers University–its libraries, faculty, and their collaborators. About 50 works from the collection are available to view, many of which were either old enough to be in the public domain or have special permissions granted by the artists.
